From Conflict to Inclusion in Housing maps the current terrain of political thinking, ethical conversations and community activism that complements the current discourse on new opportunities to access housing.
Socio-political views on housing have been brought to the fore in recent years by global economic crises, a notable rise of international migration and intensified trans-regional movement phenomena. Adopting this viewpoint, From Conflict to Inclusion in Housing maps the current terrain of political thinking, ethical conversations and community activism that complements the current discourse on new opportunities to access housing. Its carefully selected case studies cover many geographical contexts, including the UK, the US, Brazil, Australia, Asia and Europe.Importantly, the volume presents the views of stakeholders that are typically left unaccounted for in the process of housing development, and presents them with an interdisciplinary audience of sociologists, planners and architects in mind. Each chapter offers new interpretations of real-world problems, local community initiatives and successful housing projects, and together construct a critique on recent governmental and planning policies globally. Through these studies, the reader will encounter a narrative that encompasses issues of equality for housing, the biopolitics of dwelling and its associated activism, planning initiatives for social sustainability, and the cohabitation of the urban terrain.Praise for From Conflict to Inclusion in Housing'An incredibly timely and useful collection of essays on themes of conflict and inclusion in housing....There are important lessons here for housing scholars, policy-makers and practitioners globally.'Housing Studies 'Anyone with a keen interest in the subject of housing is likely to find parts of the book to be an extremely worthwhile read.'International Journal of Housing Policy'A fascinating - if highly eclectic - collection .. Any reader wishing to learn about the present-day complexity of the politics of dwelling will encounter in this rich volume an excellent opportunity to appreciate the wide range of contexts and formats in which these politics manifest themselves around the world today.'Studies in Social Justice
