Description and Table of Contents

Description

There is a lack of international comparative housing studies, this book brings together scholars with knowledge on different national markets. Each chapter can be read independently, making it easy to adopt single chapters in a course curriculum. Part A and C provides a theoretical framework that can be read separately and function as a base for discussing an individual housing market by choice above the provided country chapters. The book relies on both quantitative and qualitative methods. For teaching purposes, single chapters can be used as examples of different contexts. There is very little research on international housing markets from a comparative approach. This book provides new data as well as new analysis of existing data, providing new insights on institutional constraints on national housing markets. The book is written in an accessible, non-technical manner targeting a broad academic audience, and can be used both for teaching and readers wanting to orient themselves in the field. The book provides new perspectives on international housing markets and, focusing on underlying and interconnected markets. Specifically, the role of how institutional factors influence transaction costs differently on different national markets is addressed.
