Considering Asian cities ranging from Taipei, Hong Kong and Bangkok
to Hanoi, Nanjing and Seoul, this collection discusses the
socio-political processes of how neoliberalization entwines with
local political economies and legacies of 'developmental' or
'socialist' statism to produce urban contestations centered on
housing. The book takes housing as a key entry point, given its
prime position in the making of social and economic policies as
well as the political legitimacy of Asian states. It examines urban
policies related to housing in Asian economies in order to explore
their continuing alterations and mutations, as they come into
conflict and coalesce with neoliberal policies. In discussing the
experience of each city, it takes into consideration the variegated
relations between the state, the market and the society, and
explores how the global pressure of neoliberalization has
manifested in each country and has influenced the shaping of
national housing questions.
