Abstract

INTRODUCTION-TENURE IN THE SOCIALIST HOUSING SYSTEMHousing privatization and restitution was a defi nitive event in the history of post-socialist housing systems, and it has generated an enormous public debate (e.g., Turner, Hegedus, and Tosics 1992; Clapham and Kintera 1996; Struyk 1996; Lux 2003; Mandic 2010). In the evaluation of the debate it is important to note that tenure meant something diff erent in the socialist housing system than in Western societies (Marcuse 1996; Mandic and Clapham 1996; Hegedus and Tosics 1996; Lowe and Tsenkova 2003). One of the aims of the chapter is to understand privatization and restitution in the context of the transition of the Eastern European Housing Model (EEHM; Hegedus and Tosics 1996), emphasizing both the continuity and the contrast with previous systems.
