Making Progress in Housing by Sean Mcnelis

Making Progress in Housing by Sean Mcnelis

Our understanding of housing and the solutions we propose to housing problems (such as our on-going inability to deliver housing that is affordable, of good quality, appropriate and sustainable) depend upon the methods we use. Housing research is diverse and operates across many disciplines, many approaches and many methods; there is a distinct lack of collaborative effort. This book presents a new approach to housing research. It outlines a methodological framework that enables researchers from many different contexts to collaborate in solving increasingly complex and seemingly intractable housing problems.

"Given that it is very rare to set out comprehensive methodological critiques in housing studies, the book will interest all housing researchers who take methodology seriouslyIt will be of value to researchers engaged in national, and particularly international, comparative housing research projects, where research questions demand that new forms of collaboration are an essential prerequisite to meaningful policy analysis and prescription." – Housing Studies, Michael Oxley, University of Cambridge, UK

Sean McNelis has over 30 years’ experience in housing management, housing policy and housing research. He is a research fellow at The Swinburne Institute for Social Research, Swinburne University of Technology, Australia.
