Abstract

Over recent years, there has been a sharp increase in the various possible forms of poverty and housing vulnerability: from the total lack of shelter of the homeless to the risk of losing their home that now threatens numerous families in medium-low income brackets. At the same time, the traditional linear and standardised housing policies appear no longer adequate to address these phenomena. This book contains the results of a study entrusted by the Tuscan Regional Authority to a working group from the University of Florence and the Fondazione Giovanni Michelucci. The research explores the field of practices for self-production of housing in Italy and the world, through a critical selection of significant experiences, revealing the architectural and social creativity exploited in a large variety of collective actions. The book also contains a reconstruction of housing problems in Tuscany and an overview of alternative approaches to housing policy. The last section is devoted to the research-action on the occupation of the Luzzi, the abandoned sanatorium on the border between Florence and Sesto Fiorentino, a case that illustrates the most significant contradictions and dilemmas gravitating around the housing issue for the new poor: the problem of homeless immigrants; the difficulty of the authorities in managing problems of extreme housing poverty; the role of the associations and organisations of social mediation, and the inherent complexity of achieving a participatory approach to social and town planning research.

Abstract

Within the framework of the activities of the H2020 MICADO (Migrant Integration Cockpits and Dashboards) project, this volume brings together a set of contributions on contemporary housing, which represents one of the areas in which migrants experience a condition of major vulnerability compared to the native population and that hinders their full integration in their new living context and full social participation.

Abstract

Gemeinschaftliche Wohnprojekte erfreuen sich in Deutschland zunehmend größerer Beliebtheit. Trotz ihrer insgesamt geringen quantitativen Bedeutung wird ihnen eine hohe gesellschaftliche Relevanz zugeschrieben. Gleichzeitig findet ein wissenschaftlicher und politischer Diskurs über die Gemeinwohlorientierung im Wohnungswesen statt, in dem auch gemeinschaftliche Wohnprojekte zunehmend in den Vordergrund treten. Hierbei werden Akteure relevant, die gemeinschaftliche Wohnprojekte auf unterschiedliche Arten unterstützen. In dieser Arbeit wird die Rolle dieser Akteure am Fallbeispiel Berlin untersucht. Diese Fragestellung wird mithilfe einer Akteursrecherche sowie der Analyse von fünf mit ausgewählten Akteuren geführten Expert*inneninterviews bearbeitet. Dazu wird ihre Perspektive auf gemeinschaftliche Wohnprojekte, ihr Gemeinwohlverständnis, ihre Arbeitsweise und ihre Zusammenarbeit mit anderen Akteuren näher betrachtet. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Akteure Teil einer gut vernetzten Akteurslandschaft sind, welche stark von ideellen Überzeugungen und persönlichen Beziehungen geprägt ist. Trotz ihrer ähnlichen Perspektive auf die Herausforderungen und Bedarfe gemeinschaftlicher Wohnprojekte wählen die Akteure unterschiedliche Schwerpunkte hinsichtlich ihrer Arbeitsweise, ihrer Zielgruppen und ihrer strategischen Ausrichtung. Die derzeitigen Herausforderungen aufgrund der politischen und wirtschaftlichen Rahmenbedingungen führen zu einem begrenzten Handlungsspielraum für gemeinschaftliche Wohnprojekte und für die Akteure selbst. Während einige von ihnen versuchen, auf politische und administrative Entscheidungen Einfluss zu nehmen, bleibt unter den gegenwärtigen Umständen die Frage, welche quantitative Bedeutung diese Form des Wohnens in Zukunft haben kann.

Abstract

The provision and management of social housing for those who are unable to access the housing market is essential to the maintenance of the fabric of society. The social housing industry is vast and still growing. There are very few countries in the world where some form of subsidised housing does not exist, and the total number of social homes is likely to grow worldwide, as are the challenges of the sector.Paul Reeves takes a people-centred approach to the subject, describing the themes that have run through provision of social housing from the first philanthr
