The meaning of housing by David Clapham
This book offers a fresh new approach to the study of housing, exploring the meaning that housing has for individuals and households by examining 'housing pathways'. Although drawing on British experiences, the methodology and theoretical framework used are applicable to the study of housing in any national context.
"The Meaning of Housing is an innovative contribution to what can be described as a broader attempt to diversify and re-theorise the study of housingHopefully, it will trigger further research and encourage others to fill the knowledge gaps that Clapham has usefully highlighted and make the case for a pathways approach more persuasively." Journal of Social Policy
