Living cheek by Jowl: intensifications, inequalities and interconnections, a new agenda for housing law research

In this introduction we argue that the intensification of housing, which is a consequence of continued and accelerated urbanisation, raises contestations which should be at the forefront of social justice/housing law research. We consider urban intensification, introduce the papers and explore their interconnections, and provide some reflections on future research.

Abstract

In this introduction we argue that the intensification of housing, which is a consequence of continued and accelerated urbanisation, raises contestations which should be at the forefront of social justice/housing law research. We consider urban intensification, introduce the papers and explore their interconnections, and provide some reflections on future research.
