| Synopsis: |
This study highlights the distinctive history and dynamics of housing provision in Australia and asks: "Who wins and loses from Australian housing provision?". Winners include affluent "middle-Australia", many participants in housing industries, politicians who sell housing policies and bureaucrats whose careers rest on proving the success of housing policy. High levels of home ownership and high standards of housing consumption, however, stand in stark contrast to the down-side of Australian housing - long queues for public housing, growing homelessness and caravan living, and desperate problems of affordability for poorer Australians. This widespread overview gives the reader a critical perspective on the politics of Australian housing, with insights into the relations between production and consumption. |
