-> Growth and stagnation in social housing: what is 'social' in the social rented sector (Priemus)
|
| |
Many West European countries are currently reducing their social rented sector. New construction of social rented housing is avoided, while the sale of social rented dwellings is advocated. This paper is an attempt to explain the stagnation in social rented housing, which in some countries has reached crisis point. In addition, the changes within the social rented sector are dealt with. In many places, we observe a move towards a more market-oriented social housing sector This leads us to ask what is 'social' in the changing social rented sector. Finally, a differentiated tenant mix in social rented housing is suggested as a means to prevent stigmatisation of this tenure.

-> Events and Debates: How to abolish social housing? The Dutch case (Hugo Priemus)
|
| |
The Netherlands still has the most extensive and most differentiated social rented sector in western Europe. The question is whether by the year 2000 it will still be possible to define it as the social rented sector. The Netherlands, once the model of social house-building in Europe, could shortly be the model of the country in which the commercialization of housing has developed in the most spectacular way
