David Madden and Peter Marcuse (2016) In Defense of Housing: The Politics of Crisis
Abstract
This book is a well-thought out and thought-provoking read. Although the focus is firmly on the US context, it does draw upon international examples with several mentions of UK movements and issues. There are 5 main sections to the book along with an introduction and conclusion. The contributions are well-researched and draw upon copious amounts of evidence to argue their case for a systemic overhaul of the contemporary housing landscape. It has an easily accessible and readable format and is arguably a 'call to action' as much as it is a factual reading.
