Australia’s multi‐provider social housing system
Short term rental accommodation
Understanding the lived experience and benefits of regional cities
This research investigates the lived experience of regional city residents (in five case studies) to understand how the benefits and disadvantages of regional city life are perceived and explore attitudes towards population growth.
The politics of urban renewal in Sydney’s residential apartment market
Australia has long had a deeply speculative housing property market. Arguably this has been accentuated in recent years as successive governments have privileged private-sector investment in housing property as the key mechanism for delivering housing and a concurrent winding back of direct government support for housing. This has occurred through a period in which urban renewal and flexible planning regulation have become the key focus of urban …
It depends what you mean by the term rights’
Strata title was introduced in Australia over 50 years ago and offered a legal mechanism for space to be vertically subdivided and traded. Importantly, it allowed individualised property rights to be applied to multi-unit housing. In New South Wales, recent changes to the Strata Scheme Development Act allow termination of strata schemes with less than unanimous support of owners. A central feature of the discussion surrounding the implementation …
(Re)Producing Nature in Pyrmont and Ultimo
Urban political ecology (UPE), as articulated by Heynen et al., is premised on the refusal to ontologically separate nature and society. The urban becomes representative of an unbounded process of 'urbanisation', a complex interplay between ecological, political, and economic processes that produce historically and geographically contingent outcomes. Importantly, it advances a historical conception of nature, and problems in and of nature, that n…
Featured Graphic. A Community-Led Critique of Accessibility of Sydney's Public Transportation Network
The shift from auto-dependent modes of urban transportation has been a key focus of the sustainability literature for over two decades (Low, 2013; Mees, 2010). This literature argues that mobility in cities ought to be addressed through public transportation rather than individualised forms of transport as a pathway to low carbon economies. However, pathways to achieve such a city remain highly contentious. Many authors suggest that citizen actio…
