In December 2022 we were appointed by the journal owners, the Housing Education and Research Association (HERA), as the new editors. The Association is a diverse network of housing professionals, and it is testimony to this diversity that Housing and Society has been at the forefront of new knowledge across housing research and practice for the last fifty years. We are delighted to support the Housing and Society community as we progress the journal over the next four years. This is a key moment for housing scholarship’s role in society. With the growth in acceptance of the need for interdisciplinary research, housing stands as a key object and structure that requires insights from across aesthetic, economic, pistic, social, political, and so many more aspects. As scholars of housing and society, we grapple with thorny disciplinary theoretical and empirical challenges within these aspects and the relationship between them. Yet, we also need to consider how this knowledge relates to societal housing concerns. There is an awareness that housing scholarship, as with many areas of public life, has not paid enough attention to the meaning of justice in diverse societies and where it has, sometimes failed to articulate this clearly to societal powers. Whilst scholarship continues to delve deeper, new challenges are also occurring. The ongoing climate change crisis is already requiring new housing scholarship: understanding forcible migration and new locations of housing are necessary; new adaptation instruments are required for those communities remaining in at risk sites; and new relationships between actors, agencies, households, and societies need to be explored and theorized. Many countries are experiencing changing societal patterns, with structural changes to: the age of citizens; wealth distribution; legal security; and norms of societal coalescence all impacting on the relationship between housing and society. Your scholarship is needed to contemplate contemporary and future societal housing needs, and we look forward to partnering with you in disseminating this knowledge. The diversity of content in Housing and Society was the key draw for us in taking on the journal. Our own research interests range from land use planning for housing development (Dunning et al., 2021) to community-led housing activism (Moore, 2018) and cut across research and theory (Dunning, 2017; Inch et al, 2020; Moore, 2021) and education and practice (Moore, 2022). We are passionate about drawing international practice communities and academics together, to produce new knowledge and influence housing outcomes, and it is in this vein that we will seek to encourage the journal in the future. Whilst much of the editorial work has now transitioned outside of the USA for the first time in the journal’s history, we intend to continue a strong connection with the heritage of ","PeriodicalId":52110,"journal":{"name":"Housing and Society","volume":"50 1","pages":"157 - 161"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47370313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As Watt concedes, this contests the unremittingly coercive regeneration portrayal embodied by the state-led gentrification discourse. Moreover, drawing on his own rich body of evidence, Watt substantially complements existing knowledge on this aspect of the estate regeneration debate, as embodied in the diverse perspectives of London estate residents recounted in Chapter 10. Beyond this, it is argued that a singular focus on forced displacement due to estate demolition foregrounds “what leaving estates means to residents” but in doing so “underplays the sociological, spatial and housing complexities of living at estates” (p. 8). This observation seems highly relevant in an era when large and complex estate renewal projects are often scheduled to extend over decades – a timescale necessitated under the mixed tenure renewal model, where the associated market drip-feeding logic of participating for-sale housing developers prioritizes resulting price (and profit) maximization. Contrasting with the official regeneration discourse of “creating better places and lives,” Chapter 9 presents graphic evidence suggesting that project implementation is generally experienced by residents as “physical, social, symbolic and psychosocial degeneration” (p. 263). It is left somewhat unclear whether such an outcome is inevitable, or whether it reflects deficient – and possibly improvable – project management practice. Specifically, this downbeat assessment seems to defy the claims of some regeneration practitioners that there is potential for long-running redevelopment of large estates to be implemented via a modularized approach that minimizes exposure to disruption at any one time. Justifiably, Watt stakes a claim for his book as the first to provide “a theoretically informed, empirically rich account of the development and consequences of estate regeneration in London” (p. 13). However, while many aspects of the story are admittedly specific to the urban history, politics and governance of the UK capital, the book’s appeal should far transcend a Londonor UK-focused readership. Many of its observations and findings will resonate for scholars of social housing in pressured urban property markets, the world over, making it a valuable resource for postgraduate students of social geography and urban planning across many countries.","PeriodicalId":52110,"journal":{"name":"Housing and Society","volume":"50 1","pages":"275 - 278"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44326232","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The neighborhood had experienced an influx of new residents in recent years who, in community meetings, expressed housing and neighborhood priorities dissimilar to longer-term residents, thus prompting the local community organization’s interest in how it could better serve its residents. This qualitative study explored what respondents valued most and least about their current housing and what they needed to stay in their current homes and neighborhood. Using the Morris and Winter Housing Adjustment Theory as a framework, a survey instrument was developed to obtain respondents’ opinions to four open-ended questions. The study used a convenience sample and 255 individuals responded. Based on how long they had lived in their homes, the respondents were divided into quartiles to compare responses. Responses varied little among the quartiles indicating that newer residents were similar to longer-term residents. Comments that differed among quartiles were related to information needed to make home improvements, financial help, and accessibility modifications. Recommendations for the neighborhood’s community organization are provided.","PeriodicalId":52110,"journal":{"name":"Housing and Society","volume":"50 1","pages":"252 - 272"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44023680","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
