The chapters describe, analyse and compare the following areas, in a thematic way:- Housing markets, housing production and housing standard- The roles of housing policy actors - national government, municipalities, private business, households and non-profit actors- Housing tenures and rent legislation - Housing consumption, housing expenditure and user costs - Housing support policy, housing finance and housing taxation - Physical planning and urban policy - Sustainable development of cities and housing areasThe differences between the housing policies of the Nordic countries mean that, taken together, these countries have experience of a wide range of approaches, policies and instruments. This combined experience can be used in assessing the value of particular policies and instruments in particular contexts and assessing how they can be made to work together as effectively as possible.
