European Integration and Housing Policy (Routledge/Rics Issues in Real Estate and Housing Series)

This book presents a series of debates arising from the housing needs of different EU countries. The authors address key issues by examining in turn: * the consequences of European integration for different housing markets * the impact of the Maastricht Treaty and other policy documents * the social consequences of integration including income distribution, homelessness and marginal housing estates * current housing policy in the Nordic countries and in Eastern Europe.
