Examining new, innovative forms of public/not-for-profit affordable housing, Housing Shock makes a case for giving a legal basis to the right to housing, contextualising Ireland within the global housing crisis and linking its impact to generational, income, social class, migrant, gender and social inequality. The deepening housing crisis in Ireland is having profound social, political and economic impacts on equality, wellbeing and health. Hearn contextualises the disastrous Irish housing crisis within the broader global phenomenon and examines the origins of the contemporary crisis in housing in terms of the extension of neoliberalism, marketisation and financialisation in housing. Exposing the catastrophic depth of the crisis, he brings to the fore the personal voices, stories and perspectives of those most affected and the activists who are campaigning on the issue. Hearne also provides innovative global solutions for the crisis in housing and the development of housing initiatives that properly address inequality, climate change and citizenship exclusion.
Rory Hearne is Lecturer in Social Policy at Maynooth University, Ireland.
