Beyond Home Ownership - Bog

This book addresses the ongoing transformations in housing systems with a focus on current and future roles of home ownership in social policies and welfare practices. It considers home ownership in terms of diverse meanings and manifestations, as well as its part in the political, socioeconomic and demographic changes that characterize the emerging epoch. Interdisciplinary international contributors draw upon diverse empirical data to explore how housing and home ownership has become so embedded in polity, economy and household welfare conditions in various social and cultural contexts.
