A turn towards post-neoliberalism? Housing policy paradigm crisis in Europe
Housing policy in the twenty first century has been characterised as following a neoliberal, asset-driven paradigm. Are signs of a policy paradigm crisis emerging? Combining political economy research on institutional and ideational change, this article develops a theoretical and analytical framework to map and assess change and continuity. It applies the framework to a comparative case study of 147 housing policy measures introduced in the Nethe…
Housing unaffordability and political preferences among young people in Europe
Affordable housing is a pressing political problem that seems to be fueling social unrest among young people. Rising rents, expensive property prices, and stagnant wages leave young adults with few prospects of entering the housing market without intergenerational financial support. In this article, we examine the role of homeownership, housing unaffordability, and intergenerational transfers in explaining welfare preference and voting behavior o…

Rental subsidies and take‐up barriers in an era of expensive rents: An extended version of the theory of planned behaviour
Despite increasing rent price burdens throughout Europe, many eligible households for rental subsidies do not use them. Understanding determinants of low take‐up is crucial for evaluating program effectiveness and anticipating fiscal implications. To identify those determinants, we built an extended version of the theory of planned behaviour, incorporating dimensions from the claiming costs scale. In an online survey, participants comprising rent…
Acquisition capital: Using a new concept to explore housing outcomes among millennials in the United States
What resources help young people secure homeownership and housing wealth? We combine findings from two literatures, one which emphasizes the role of income, education, and inheritances and one which emphasizes the role of financial strategies, to evaluate whether a more comprehensive set of resources help young people aged 18–45 navigate the housing market in the United States. Using the 2019 Survey of Consumer Finances (SCF) and through logistic…
Housing Regime Typologies and Their Discontents: A Systematic Literature Review
Housing regime typologies represent a key conceptual construct in the comparative housing research literature, whose classificatory and explanatory capacity is still the subject of lively debate. The variety of methods and results amassed in the field, alternatively dismissing or supporting their usefulness, makes it difficult to discern the classificatory and explanatory power of various housing regime approaches. To this aim, this study offers …
The Pandemic Worsens Europe’s Housing Problems
Housing is a flash point in many European countries, with protests erupting and citizens voting to wrench properties from big investors. Inequality is driving the explosive debate, as households across the income distribution face very different kinds of challenges and opportunities in today’s unequal housing markets. The COVID-19 pandemic has amplified the risks and rewards already present across different subgroups. This housing-generated inequ…
Post-crisis developments in young adults’ housing wealth
How has housing wealth inequality changed for young-adult households in the post-financial crisis period, and what is driving such change? We chart a path for subsequent studies by analysing the previously unexamined post-crisis housing wealth profile of young adults via different angles and using multiple inequality measures. Using household micro-data for 11 European countries ( Household Finance and Consumption Survey, 2010–2017) and the Unite…
The young and the restless: Housing Access in the Critical Years
How do governmental housing policies affect the ability of young people to exit the parental home? This paper makes three claims. First and most important, governments that create accessible and liquid mortgage markets make it easier for young people to launch from the parental home. Second, even in those countries with more liquid housing markets, younger generations today still have an increasingly difficult time realising their preferences com…
I’ll Just Stay Home: Employment Inequality Among Parents
How does homeownership magnify existing gender disparities in the labor markets of the rich OECD countries? Men and women, and especially mothers and fathers, respond to homeownership differently. Owners work more hours than renters but mothers experience an ownership penalty while fathers solidify their market attachment. Both responses increase the gender gap. As such, governments pursuing dual policy objectives of promoting homeownership and g…
Childcare markets and maternal employment: A typology
How does the structure of a country’s childcare market influence maternal employment? Childcare markets vary across countries, leading mothers to rely on various forms of care depending on what is available to them in both the public (state-provided) and private (non-state) childcare markets. Maternal employment is higher in countries that combine comprehensive childcare policies with an available and affordable private care market. When aspects …
No Exit: Social Reproduction in an Era of Rising Income Inequality
What explains the unexpected, uneven, but unquestionably pervasive trend toward re-familialization in the rich OECD countries? The usual arguments about political responses to rising income inequality, unstable families, and unstable employment predicted that the state would increasingly shelter people against risk, producing greater individuation and de- rather than re-familialization. By contrast, we argue three things. First, re-familializatio…
