Purpose: This research aims to explore the intricate dynamics of project politics in public housing development within Small Island Developing States (SIDS), with a particular focus on the interplay between costs and revenue. Methodology: Utilizing a detailed case study approach, this paper investigates a specific public housing project in a SIDS, analyzing the political dynamics surrounding its cost and revenue aspects. Findings: The study reveals that political factors significantly influence decision-making processes, resource allocation, and the financial viability of public housing projects in SIDS. Political interference often results in resource misallocation, cost overruns, and inefficiencies in revenue generation. Additionally, patronage and nepotism lead to housing resource distribution based on political favoritism rather than genuine need, undermining the effectiveness and fairness of public housing initiatives. Contribution to Theory, Policy, and Practice: This research underscores the critical importance of addressing project politics to ensure sustainable and effective housing solutions in SIDS. By highlighting the need for enhanced financial viability, transparency, and accountability in public housing projects, this study contributes valuable insights to the theoretical understanding of development politics. It also offers practical recommendations for policymakers to mitigate political interference, thereby fostering equitable and sustainable public housing solutions in SIDS.

Full textAbstract:
Recent studies of economic voting have focused on the role of the local economy, but with inconclusive results. We argue that while local economic conditions affect incumbent support on average, the importance of the local economy varies by citizens’ interactions with it. More recent and frequent encounters with aspects of the local economy make those aspects more salient and, in turn, feature more prominently in evaluations of the incumbent government. We label this process “context priming.” We provide evidence for these propositions by studying local housing markets. Linking granularly detailed data on housing prices from Danish public registries to both precinct-level election returns and an individual-level panel survey, we find that when individuals interact with the housing market, their support for the incumbent government is more responsive to changes in local housing prices. The study thus provides a framework for understanding when citizens respond politically to the local economy.

Full textAbstract:
An earthquake that struck Palu City, Central Sulawesi Province on September 28, 2018 rose potential problems. One of them is the permanent housing (huntap) provision for 6,504 earthquake-affected households. With a descriptive qualitative approach, this research focuses on the social and political aspects of providing permanent housing for disaster victims. Public opinion, both conveyed by refugees targeted for permanent housing and NGO activists and media workers, is expected to improve the policy of providing permanent housing for earthquake victims in Palu. The public hopes that the houses built for earthquake victims are to replace their lost homes and function as a place for psychological recovery. Therefore, the social aspects of housing provision are essential to receive government priorities, such as guaranteeing a sense of security, comfort, and relocated land status. Assistance and advocacy for displaced victims to obtain their rights should be appreciated, exceptionally due to the lack of political function of Regional House of Representative Council (DPRD) roles in guarding disaster victims. Legislators are unable to make a greater effort due to their status as part of the regional government. Simultaneously, the mass media’s attention to housing provisions is still vital for the government to formulate, implement and evaluate its policies. This study also discovered conditions where local governments have limited authority to provide shelter for displaced victims. Centralized government authority forces local governments to rely on the president and his staff.

Abstract Demographic factors next to economic, political and legal ones, are important elements determining the development of the housing market. The analysis of the age structure of the population and of the dynamics of change shows that the population of baby boomers in the age group that is actively entering the labor market and becoming independent is a stimulant for the development of the housing market. Individuals who are gaining economic independence generate new needs and, with appropriate financial resources, also future demand for their own accommodation. Deliberations regarding the housing market benefit noticeably from the analysis of home buyers’ age structure, especially in the context of the family life cycle. This issue became the focus of our study, which aims to determine the age of apartment buyers on the local market during an economic downturn and state interventionism in the form of preferential mortgages. The analysis makes use of information from notarial acts (including the personal identity number PESEL - the year of birth of the purchaser) and statistical tools. The results of the study may support the decisions and direction of state aid aimed at meeting housing needs.

While feminist political economists have identified social service provisioning as socially reproductive work and have examined its reorganization under neoliberalism, little attention has been paid to the mental health care sector. Furthermore, within feminist political economy scholarship on work in the social service sector, little attention has been paid to the contributions of service users. I address some of these gaps by developing a Mad feminist political economy framework to analyze the unpaid socially reproductive work completed by residents in high-support psychiatric housing in Ontario today.
Drawing on data from interviews with 23 residents and 15 service providers in high-support psychiatric housing in Ontario, as well as a review of government and non-profit organization documents, I argue that the work done by residents alleviates demands on social service workers in a time of neoliberal restraint, intensified workplace demands, and a heightened focus on service user independence in all aspects of life. I then conclude with recommendations for change.

Abstract In the second half of the 20th century, solving the housing crisis became a significant social issue and political task throughout Europe, particularly in the countries of the Eastern Bloc. Although due to its quantity, prefabricated large mass housing estates became overrepresented, dozens of smaller, experimental, and diverse mass housing forms also emerged. It is hypothesized, that these small housing estates, due to their scale and quality, are urban planning projects that were realized across political, economic, and architectural changes. To demonstrate their adaptability, this paper presents the small housing estates built in one of the capitals of the Eastern Bloc countries—Budapest—during the most turbulent one-and-a-half decades of the socialist era (1945–1960). The research consists of three main parts: (1) Hungarian politics and housing policy, (2) Budapest's urban policy, and (3) a brief presentation of the urban planning and architectural aspects of Budapest's small housing estates. The result of the research is the creation of a complete small housing estates portfolio, illustrated archive articles, archival plans, and photographs. It becomes evident that although the times from World War II to the consolidation of power saw vastly different political eras, directives, and ideals realized, along with various architectural styles and housing policies, the small housing estate as an urban planning product was able to adapt and survive. Moreover, it is a valuable architectural, housing, and urban planning imprint of the era, the only mass housing form realized in numerous examples in Budapest.

Resumo: Em 2007, um imóvel ocioso no bairro da Luz, em São Paulo, foi ocupado: a comunidade Mauá. Quase cinco anos depois, os moradores receberam uma ordem de despejo. Sua reação foi lutar: para que as famílias sejam atendidas (isto é, inseridas em programas de política pública habitacional) e, ao mesmo tempo, para que o despejo não ocorra. Com o pedido de liminar de reintegração de posse, vêm à tona, de maneira mais intensa, processos de construção de uma coletividade que contempla a diferença e relações entre a ocupação, o poder público e o proprietário do prédio ocupado. Esta é uma etnografia de uma experiência, em dois níveis: o da experiência da ocupação e dos confrontos e embates a partir da liminar de reintegração de posse; e da minha experiência de encontro e confronto com essa experiência objetivada. Entendo que a ocupação Mauá não se esgota na sua arquitetura e, sim, contém potencialidades e outras coletividades. Por isso, inicialmente, faço uma breve discussão sobre o ocupar, antes de apresentar a Mauá e seus entornos e situá-la no centro da cidade de São Paulo. Dignidade e vida aparecem como categorias orientadoras do habitar (na ocupação), nas falas durante atos públicos na rua ou reuniões públicas com o governo e atores estatais. Porquanto a luta pelo direito à moradia ampara-se na ideia de viver dignamente, a ordem de despejo equipara-se a uma sentença de morte - da qual, contudo, é possível escapar pela luta. As intenções metodológicas da pesquisa foram: a) não entender o movimento social como bloco homogêneo, nem os atores e seus posicionamentos como previamente definidos (mas sim como relacionais e situacionais) e b) refutar a cisão entre "novos" e "velhos" movimentos sociais. Uma das hipóteses é que os múltiplos sentidos de coletividade são construídos, sobretudo, na conexão entre passado, presente e futuro, por meio de narrativas. Como resultado, proponho entender a política como composta por elementos de resistência, reivindicação e prefiguração
Abstract: In 2007, an idle property at the neighborhood of Luz, in the city of São Paulo, was squatted: the Mauá squatting [ocupação Mauá]. Almost five years after the squatting, the inhabitants received an eviction order. Their reaction was to struggle: for the families to be attended (that is, to be contemplated in programs of public housing policy) and, at the same time, for the eviction not to happen. Together with the injunction of repossession, we can intensely observe processes of construction of a collectivity that contemplates the difference and relations between the squatting, the public power and the building owner. This is in ethnography of an experience, in two levels: first, the experience of the squatting and the confrontation and shocks from the moment of the injunction of repossession; second, of my experience of encounter and confrontation with this objectified experience. I understand that the Mauá squatting is not only its architecture, but it also contains potentialities and other collectivities. That is the reason I begin with a brief discussion about the squatting, before introducing Mauá and its surroundings and situate it in the center of São Paulo city. Dignity and life show up as guiding categories of dwelling (in the squatting), in speeches during public protests at the street or public reunions with government and state actors. Inasmuch as the struggle for the right to housing is supported by the idea of living with dignity, the eviction equates to a death sentence - from which, however, is possible to escape through the struggle [luta]. The methodological intentions of this research were: a) not to understand the social movement as a homogeneous block, neither its actors and positions as previously defined (instead, to understand them as relational and situational) and b) to refute the split between "new" and "old" social movements. One of the hypotheses is that multiple senses of collectivity are mainly built in the connection between past, present and future, through narratives. As an outcome, I propose to understand the politics as composed by resistance, claiming and prefiguration elements

Resumo: Este trabalho trata dos campos de ação dos movimentos sociais, os componentes e o papel dos atores. São três os compartimentos com os quais se pretende abrir e iniciar um aprendizado sobre um setor do movimento de moradia em São Paulo, durante o governo PT entre 2001-004, momento intermediário entre a fase de reestruturação da produção capitalista no país, iniciada por um governo neoliberal, e a sua consolidação por um governo que se reivindica de esquerda: o primeiro, no terreno da institucionalidade; o segundo, no domínio político; e o terceiro, no campo categorial. Os três implicando em questões próprias a outros movimentos, apresentando problemas cujas causas endógenas ou exógenas não são jamais exaustivas, vislumbrando perspectivas ainda não distinguidas, são desenvolvidos na tentativa de encontrar respostas aos fenômenos comuns à metrópoles como São Paulo. A observação empírica dos movimentos de moradia leva a constatações relativas à dinâmica dos movimentos em relação às políticas públicas, aos partidos, à sua condição de pertencer a um domínio categorial, o de ser composto majoritariamente por mulheres e migrantes, e de existir graças aos teólogos da libertação. Algumas delas, admitidas há algum tempo pelos estudiosos ou teóricos de movimentos sociais, outras negadas ou rejeitadas, mas nenhuma das constatações leva em consideração o caráter de interdependência entre os três compartimentos citados acima. Uma análise mais aprofundada mostra que os movimentos que lutam por problemas específicos, mesmo conscientes dos problemas do conjunto da sociedade, tendem a permanecerem isolados e marginalizados se não conseguem criar a necessária constituição das relações de força sob determinadas condições, das quais uma delas é a independência do aparelho do Estado, que paradoxalmente encontra-se comprometida há alguns anos no Brasil
Abstract: This thesis focuses on the fields of action of social movements, their components and the role of the participants. There are three categories from which a new perspective on a sector of the housing movement in São Paulo during the PT government from 2001 to 2004 will be developed. This was a period between the phase of restructuration of capitalist production in Brazil, introduced by a neo-liberal government and its consolidation by a government that claimed to be left. The first category is in institutional terms, the second in political terms and the thirdly the categorial realm. These three elements ¿ which imply questions specific to other movements, present problems whose internal or external causes are never fully covered, and raise perspectives not yet determined ¿ are developed in an attempt to find answers to the phenomena common to large urban areas such as São Paulo. The empiric observation of urban housing movements brings us to conclusions relating to the dynamic of movements vis-a-vis governmental and party policies, to their condition, which is to belong to a categorial realm, to be made up mainly of women and migrants and to exist thanks to liberation theologists. Some of these conclusions have been accepted for some time by researchers and social movement theorists, some have been denied or rejected, but none of them have taken into account the interdependence of the three elements noted above. A more in-depth analysis shows that the movements which fight on specific problems, even if they are aware of wide-ranging social problems, tend to remain isolated, marginalized if they do not manage to create the necessary relationship of forces in the specific conditions, one of which is independence from the state apparatus, which paradoxically finds itself having been compromised for a number of years in Brazil

Resumo: Esta tese tem como objetivo principal problematizar o debate sobre a participação política e a construção da democracia no Brasil. Tendo como referência empírica as ocupações de imóveis ociosos no centro da cidade de São Paulo, ações realizadas pelo movimento de moradia da capital paulista, nossa proposta consiste em ampliar o escopo de análise referente ao tema da participação na literatura nacional. Em linhas gerais, este debate ficou restrito à dimensão institucional desta, desconsiderando outras formas de atuação política que, a despeito de se caracterizarem por sua extra institucionalidade, também podem ser entendidas como formas de participação política. O argumento central da tese é que o deslocamento analítico aqui proposto (dos espaços institucionais em direção ao espaço "das ruas") oferece vantagens analíticas importantes no debate teórico sobre a democracia, uma vez que nos possibilita lançar luz sobre temas e conflitos cruciais para o entendimento da disputa pela construção democrática e identificar com mais clareza os diferentes projetos políticos em disputa. A sociedade brasileira, no período pós-autoritário, foi capaz de avançar significativamente na construção de espaços participativos institucionais dedicados ao processo de formulação, implementação e execução das políticas públicas nas mais diferentes áreas. Atualmente, existe um significativo consenso construído em torno do ideário participativo: as mais diferentes forças políticas estão de acordo com relação à legitimidade da participação popular na administração pública. Contudo, este consenso se desfaz nitidamente quando se trata de reconhecer como legítimas outras formas de atuação política, como é o caso das ocupações de terras e imóveis ociosos promovidas pelos movimentos sociais do campo e da cidade. Ao longo do texto, procuramos esclarecer que a controvérsia encetada pelas ocupações na opinião pública está diretamente relacionada ao conflito que estas acionam: em última análise, as ocupações contestam o direito de propriedade irrestrito das classes economicamente dominantes da sociedade, ainda que não questionem o direito de propriedade em si mesmo. Para referenciar a discussão empiricamente, nos debruçamos sobre as ocupações de imóveis ociosos promovidas pelo movimento de moradia no centro da capital paulista, demonstrando que estas ações também acionam um conflito específico: o questionamento do modelo hegemônico de urbanização, que historicamente empurrou as classes mais pobres para as áreas periféricas dos grandes centros urbanos. Trata-se de uma luta, portanto, pelo direito de morar nas áreas centrais, o que classificamos, nesta tese, como uma luta pelo direito à cidade. Demonstramos também que estas ocupações, iniciadas em 1997, trouxeram importantes conquistas para o movimento em questão, tanto do ponto de vista material quanto simbólico. Apontamos ainda o debate jurídico relacionado à legitimidade e à legalidade das ocupações. Inclusive dentro do poder judiciário, podemos identificar um conflito entre diferentes concepções relacionadas à legitimidade destas ações. A metodologia da pesquisa envolveu a revisão bibliográfica e conceitual dos temas pertinentes, trabalho de campo, entrevistas, análise de material jornalístico e de documentos produzidos pelos próprios movimentos sociais analisados
Abstract: The main goal of this thesis is to debate the political participation and the democratic construction in Brazil. For that, it was chosen, as empirical reference, the occupations of idle properties downtown of the city of São Paulo, actions performed by the housing movement, our proposal is to broaden the scope of analysis concerning the issue of participation in the national literature. In general, this debate was restricted to the institutional dimension of participation, disregarding other forms of political action that, despite being external to the institutions, can also be understood as forms of political participation. The central argument of the thesis is that the analytical shift proposed here (institutional spaces toward space of "the streets") offers important advantages in analytical theoretical debate on democracy, since it enables us to shed light on issues and conflicts that are crucial for understanding the dispute for building democracy and identify more clearly the different political projects in dispute. The Brazilian society, in the post-authoritarian period, was able to make significant progress in building institutional participatory spaces dedicated to the development, implementation and execution of public policies in different areas. At present, there is a significant consensus built around participatory ideals: the most different political forces agree regarding the legitimacy of public participation in public administration. However, this consensus clearly breaks down when it comes to recognize as legitimate other forms of political action, as the case of land occupations and idle properties promoted by social movements in the countryside and the city. Throughout of the text, we seek to clarify that the controversy initiated by occupations in the public opinion is directly related to the conflict that they trigger: the occupations challenging the unrestricted right of property of the economically dominant classes of society, though not question the right of ownership in itself. To reference the discussion empirically, our study turns to the occupations of idle properties promoted by the housing movement in downtown of São Paulo, demonstrating that these actions also trigger a specific conflict: questioning the hegemonic model of urbanization, that historically pushed the poorer classes to outlying areas of large urban centers. It is therefore a struggle for the right to live in the central areas, which we classify in this thesis as a struggle for the right to the city. We have also demonstrated that these occupations, started in 1997, brought important achievements to the housing movement, from the standpoint of both material and symbolic. We still point the debate related to legitimacy and the legality of occupations. Including within the judiciary, we can identify a conflict between different conceptions regarding the legitimacy of these actions. The research methodology involved the literature and conceptual review of relevant topics, fieldwork, interviews, analysis of journalistic material and documents produced by the social movements analyzed

Full textAbstract:
AbstractMigrants’ squats often inhabit marginal and “out of sight” urban areas, placed at the intersection of institutional neglect and alternative strategies for self-managed living. Yet, at times, migrants’ informal settlements become highly visible places, as they find themselves in the spotlight as symbols of governmental failure and urban decay. This chapter reflects on the hurdles and conundrums of negotiating access as a researcher within such a place. It is based on a number of ethnographic encounters that took place at “Ex-MOI”, a housing squat in Turin’s abandoned Olympic Village that became catalyst of local anxieties, as well as of national xenophobic propaganda. Entering a housing squat – at once a public and a private environment – is by no means obvious. Yet, this scenario offers a fertile perspective to look at some underlying aspects of the ethnographic encounter, such as research subjects’ resistance to the “ethnographic gaze”, cross-gender and cross-racial dynamics within fieldwork, as well as the role of the “unsaid” as a telling social act. Refugees’ refusal to be “domesticated” for academic purposes testifies to their multiple attempts at re-gaining control over the representation of their lives, as well as to the inherent political nature of acts of homemaking.

This chapter narrates the race science story. Among the more important was the shift from simply counting races, as was needed to make the three-fifths policy work, to investigating characteristics considered unique to different races. The policy goal was to determine who was fit for citizenship responsibilities: whites, certainly; the American Indian, probably not; the African, clearly not. The statistical races helped fix the color line in American politics, essentially drawing policy boundaries that gradually governed all aspects of life: schooling, housing, employment, marriage, travel, and political participation. The political understanding that counting the population by race could do nationally significant policy work led naturally to a close partnership between race science and census statistics, setting the stage for what scholars call evidence-based policy 150 years later.

Today’s adolescents and youth form a quarter of the world’s population. They are shaping social and economic development, challenging social norms and values, and building the foundation of the world’s future. The beginning of the XXI century is marked by the aggravation of youth problems in different countries, among which Ukraine is no exception. Nowadays, Ukrainian youth is affected by: political and economic crisis in the country; unemployment; unresolved housing conditions; poor health; social disorders; economic and psychological dependence on parents; marital and family problems (high divorce rate, family conflicts); low birth rate; loss of ideals, social perspective, and life optimism.

This chapter argues that had political leaders and a broad coalition of interest groups truly wanted to heal both wounds from the postwar era—racialized segregation and environmental destruction—far more could have been done. The utterly broken politics of urbanization and development in the Bay Area became and remain a useful excuse from varying political sides, a way of abdicating responsibility in the face of history. Building a new, more unified politics of development will take time. It will require rethinking who plans and who is a planner, and the very role of urban development in the economy as a whole. It means abandoning some of the normative baggage with which places and housing choices are judged, and ensuring that everyone's place and everyone's home is as secure and risk-free as possible. It will also require a renewed commitment to combating exploitation in all aspects of metropolis-building.

The book has uncovered many aspects of the functioning of planning in England which are seen as highly dysfunctional in terms of achieving good results in planning. It has been argued that this is due in part to the ideological and political mis-structuring of planning. This chapter makes a range of suggestions as to how these problems could be addressed. It draws in part on a recent review of the planning system, the Raynsford Review. That Review argued for the strengthening of local government, to make it the key actor in guiding a strong planning system, and in implementing change in every field, especially to create affordable housing and address the climate crisis. The chapter extends these proposals, in areas such as finding ways to improve the media system locally for planning and the associated scope for improvement of public deliberation. There is also a need to regulate the lobbying and pressure group world, to create something a bit closer to a level playing field of influence on central and local planning.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter examines whether there are any aspects of communism that are missed and how people feel about democracy. While almost everyone said they preferred democracy to communism, people felt more secure about things such as their job, housing, and basic necessities under communism. Many of these aspects were affected by the centrally planned system used by communists. This chapter will discuss the differences between a centrally planned system and a capitalist system and how attitudes and behaviors of both governments and individuals can be affected by them. Additionally, there were some components of democracy people did not like. Many said democracy and capitalism made people too individualistic and materialistic. Even with these perceived shortcomings, people still felt democracy was a better political system.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter examines how attention to issues of care could alter approaches to housing policy. It focuses on the interplay between housing and social inequalities. It contributes to intersectional analyses of care practices by combining analysis of the material, symbolic and economic aspects of housing’s intersections with caring relationships within the home. It discusses the role of housing in care as: an asset to finance care; as a built form; as a source of identity and ontological security; and as a base for fostering networks of support. It shows that that these wider implications of viewing dwellings as sites of care are significant for housing and wider social policy.

Full textAbstract:
The recent spate of global migration for geo-political reasons hides the fact that human migration has occurred over several millennia. Perhaps social media has led to acute awareness of the impact of immigration on social, political, and economic aspects of the new country. Urban areas and conurbations tend to attract refugees and asylum seekers. The contributions that migrants make are often ignored or forgotten. Migrants are mostly psychologically and physically resilient, but acculturation processes may not always go smoothly, creating discrimination by the larger community. Some migrant groups show higher rates of psychiatric disorders, but these have to be seen in the context of discrimination in policies of employment, housing, etc., and physical and psychological acculturation. Political, social, and economic factors are likely to play a role in the genesis of depression in urban migrants. Specific social factors may influence the individual’s functioning soon after arrival, but other factors may emerge after moving into the city.

Full textAbstract:
The United States’ long history of structural racism, permeating all aspects of life including housing, employment and healthcare, placed American minorities at disproportionate danger from COVID-19. The combination of American racism and COVID-19 resulted not only in spikes in hate crimes and discrimination, but also the avoidable deaths of thousands of Americans. This case study reviews structural racism’s mounting death toll and culture wars and clashes in the context of the US political landscape during COVID-19. While some individuals and non-governmental organisations moved to fill voids left by government inaction on racism and xenophobia, others actively sought to escalate racial tensions. The structural racism and social determinants of health that set the stage for the harm American minority communities endured in the pandemic’s first year and beyond remain deeply ingrained in the American cultural, political and social systems.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This chapter tests one of our discipline’s key pedagogies, putting films in context, by reading one very short film closely. Kahlil Joseph’s film, Bellhaven Meridian, accompanies the music of Shabazz Palaces but is more than a music video. Like Joseph’s work more generally, it collates aspects of African American experience, movement, rhythm, and form; it also pays tribute to Los Angeles and the filmmakers of the LA Rebellion, particularly Charles Burnett, who likewise mined everyday life for filmic material. In reading this three-minute film closely, I explore the boundless nature of what a “context” might include, from aspects of mise en scène to the histories of LA housing the film references to the artistic traditions and lineages it cites. If “context” is ultimately undecidable and uncontainable, it nonetheless can give shape to how we think about a given film and its political-aesthetic project.

Full textAbstract:
The unavailability of housing in the Czech and Slovak Republics is a fundamental problem, which is a consequence of many social, economic, political, and behavioural or historical aspects. The housing affordability deficit has the character of a systemic market failure, which is - paradoxically - linked to the growth of prosperity and resulting from the dual nature of the object (housing) in question - it is both an investment product and a de facto mandatory social need. It is an indicated market failure that justifies state intervention and public support. The housing problem no longer affects only the socially disadvantaged and the middle-income groups. Unfortunately, the deficit of housing affordability has a fatal impact on the competitiveness of cities and regions and its social cohesion and environmental and economic sustainability.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This paper aims to detail key success factors in understanding the effective principles of managing the health and well-being of the contractor workforce during and post pandemics, specifically for organizations in the oil, gas and energy industry. Furthermore, it shall provide insights and guidance on how to maintain and enhance contractor workforce experience, particularly during and post the COVID-19 pandemic; detailing the benefits of having well-established health management programs designed specifically for the contractor workforce. The social determinants of health (SDH) can be defined as the social and economic conditions in which people are born, grow, live, learn, work and age. They are nonmedical factors that influence a vast range of health conditions; affecting individuals' overall quality-of-life. Economic policies, social norms and political systems are all examples of forces and factors that shape daily life conditions and affect human health (ODPHP, n.d.; WHO, n.d.a). SDH also encompasses education, employment, socioeconomic status, access to health care, social support as well as neighborhood and physical environment (Artiga and Hinton, 2018). SDH have a crucial influence on health disparities and inequities – "the unfair and avoidable differences in health status seen within and between countries" (CDC, 2020). A well-known key factor in the emergence and perpetuation of health disparities is housing. Several researchers from a diverse array of disciplines explored the various aspects of the association between housing, health and well-being. They endeavored to comprehensively elucidate the major pathways through which housing conditions can negatively impact health equity, with a focus on the broad spectrum of hazardous exposures, their accumulated impact and their historical production. As reported by Rolfe et al. (2020), there is compelling evidence of poor physical health consequences of toxins within homes, damp and mold, cold indoor temperatures, overcrowding, and safety factors. Beyond the aforementioned impacts of physical aspects of housing on physical health, poor housing conditions have also been linked with high risks of poor mental health and well-being (Pevalin et al., 2017).

Full textAbstract:
Homelessness is a phenomenon present in all countries of the world. In almost all major cities, in certain parts, i.e. inhabited or abandoned places, homeless people can be found begging or sleeping on the street, on a bench, under bridges, in makeshift houses with substandard housing conditions. Such images are numerous and show the ugly side both of the highly developed countries and of the poor and underdeveloped countries of the Global South. The topic is often debated and researched in the public-political sphere, as well as in the academic or civil sector, and encompasses many issues: human rights and discrimination of the homeless, social protection and social prevention policies, housing policy and other structural factors related to poverty and unemployment in the countries, health and mental condition of the homeless, humanism and solidarity versus marginalization and social exclusion of this vulnerable category. In this paper, the process of stigmatization and criminalization of homeless people will be specially elaborated. Additionally, certain phenomenological and etiological aspects will be analysed, as well as certain conditions in Macedonia related to the registration and social protection policies related to homelessness as a social problem. Keywords: homeless people, stigmatization, pathway to homelessness, social exclusion

Full textAbstract:
Lo studio qui proposto ha preso l’avvio da due eventi fondamentali per lo sviluppo urbanistico
della città di Viterbo, nessuno dei quali possiamo dire costituisca la conseguenza di una politica
urbana di indirizzo.
Il primo ha decretato, a partire dagli anni Ottanta del secolo scorso, lo spopolamento e il
progressivo degrado del centro storico a seguito del vero e proprio esodo verso i nuovi
insediamenti di edilizia economica e popolare e soprattutto verso le innumerevoli ville, costruite
facendole passare per fabbricati rurali, nelle zone agricole a ridosso della città; il secondo,
tuttora in atto, registra una tendenza opposta in virtù dei mutamenti profondi occorsi nel tessuto
sociale e della mutata situazione economica.
Le scarse disponibilità economiche hanno reso infatti nuovamente appetibili, da parte di nuovi
fruitori con scarse possibilità economiche, i numerosi immobili del centro rimasti liberi e in
cattive condizioni di manutenzione, dapprima senza operare alcuna alterazione nel tessuto
edilizio esistente; quindi è iniziata un’operazione sistematica di portata ben diversa, mirata alla
trasformazione in unità abitative minime dei locali situati al livello stradale adibiti un tempo a
magazzini e cantine.
Esigenze differenti di persone differenti hanno indotto una nuova territorializzazione della città
storica. Resta da capire in che misura questo processo sia stato previsto o valutato, e se la
costituzione di un tessuto sociale così omogeneo nella struttura possa considerarsi
positivamente ai fini del riequilibrio socio-economico complessivo, di cui il problema edilizioabitativo
rappresenta solo uno degli aspetti The aim of this paper is to reflect on two major trends concerning the urban development of the
city of Viterbo, neither of which appears to stem from a precise urban policy.
The first one was the depopulation and progressive decline of the ancient city centre caused by
the relocation of the inhabitants towards the new council housing settlements and especially
towards the countless new villas, originally intended as farm houses on agricultural land
adjacent to the city.
The second one, still ongoing, is an opposite trend, the result of profound changes in the social
fabric of the society and of the present economic stagnation. Many unoccupied and neglected
houses and flats in the city centre are appealing to people with limited financial means, in spite
of the lack of upgrading. In addition, basements and cellars are being converted into actual
housing units.
The needs of the abovementioned people have triggered a new territorialisation of the historic
centre. It is yet to be determined to what extent this phenomenon has been contemplated and understood, and whether the rise of such a uniform social fabric should be construed as positive
for the general socioeconomic balance, of which the housing issue is only one of the factors.
