Order Book
The book presents an overview of private rented housing in selected new EU member states and other transition countries – a topic scarcely researched to date. Part I presents the private rental sector in Western and Northern European countries, the history of private renting under socialism in Central and Eastern Europe, and thematic issues such as property restitution and marginalized groups depending on privately rented housing. Part II provides a series of country case studies. Part III concludes with chapters on the possibility of utilizing the private rental sector in affordable housing provision through good practices in bot hold and new EU member states, and sets out to further the housing policy debate on European housing regimes.
