"This timely book provides readers with a detailed comparative survey of tenure innovation and diversification in Europe. Alternative and intermediate tenures, i.e., housing options beyond tenancy and homeownership, are examined as remedies to address the growing European housing crisis. Starting with an introduction to national housing systems and their development, contributions from experienced legal academics explain the potential of alternative and intermediate tenures used in individual countries. Divided into groups reflecting not only geographical vicinity, but also roughly similar types of welfare states, the book examines 14 jurisdictions all over Europe. Taken together, the national models constitute what can be labelled a European acquis of housing options. The final comparative evaluation focuses on selecting best practice models, potentially capable of being transferred to, and used beneficially in, other countries. Ways out of the European Housing Crisis will be of great interest for academics in European law, property law and public administration and management. It will also be a key resource for policymakers and experts associated with political institutions, civil society and housing associations, both at European and national levels"-- Provided by publisher.
