Housing Studies

Managing Editors: Alex Marsh and Ray Forrest, both at University of Bristol, UK

Housing Studies is the essential international forum for academic debate in the housing field. Since its establishment in 1986, Housing Studies has become the leading housing journal and has played a major role in theoretical and analytical developments within this area of study.
Housing Studies has explored a range of academic and policy concerns including the following:

  • linkages between housing and other areas of social and economic policy
  • the role of housing in everyday life and in gender, class and age relationships
  • the economics of housing expenditure and housing finance
  • international comparisons and developments
  • issues of sustainability and housing development
  • demographic and social trends and the changing role of housing tenures
  • theoretical and conceptual frameworks for housing studies
