Objective
The starting points of this proposal are that across Europe social rights, which contribute to the meaning of citizenship, are being restructured and that housing is an important site in which European households experience this restructuring. One conseque nce is the creation of new patterns of security and insecurity. These patterns are themselves the result of the complex interplay of a number of elements including systems of housing provision with labour markets and job opportunities, the opportunities to access finance and systems of social support, combined with the strategies adopted by individuals. When looked at from the point of view of member states, or even the EU as a whole, outcomes that favour individuals do not necessarily favour society al lar ge. The proposal focuses on security and insecurity within home ownership and their wider implications. It has two main objectives. Firstly, it will analyse the factors that have impacted upon individual households and have consequences for their positions as home ownership. Secondly, it will establish: how households perceive the patterns of security and insecurity, advantage and disadvantage associated with different housing positions; how those perceptions have moulded their personal strategies with resp ect not only to housing, but also to matters such as jobs, family size, education and pensions; and how those positions have provided them with material security and insecurity. These objectives will be met through multilevel research in a range of Europea t countries. It will involve both quantitative and qualitative analysis. Quantitative analysis will be used with both macro (countrywide) and micro (household) data. Qualitative studies will be based on household interviews. Throughout, the identification of policy-relevant analysis and conclusions will be emphasised.
