Housing justice examines how contemporary dwelling operates at the intersection of violence and liberation. Through situated research spanning five continents, contributors analyse housing not as a bounded object but as extended geographies shaped by colonialism, financialisation and racial capitalism. The volume traces structural formations of injustice, everyday experiences of precarious habitation and collective movements for transformation. Long-term situated research is presented from the case of financialisation of housing in Eastern Europe to sex workers' housing struggles in Italy, from extended forms of urbanisation in India to the scaling-out of tenant organising in North America. Moving beyond the urge to provide normative policy ‘fixes’ for the housing question, the book develops a tripartite approach—structures, intersections, liberations—that reveals housing as a key site for understanding and challenging fundamental structural injustices of our time. Essential reading for those seeking situated, politically committed scholarship on the global housing and habitational crisis.
