Description
Summary:Housing sociology has articulated an integrative approach derived from J. Kemeny’s work and his conception of residence as “a household in a dwelling”. This perspective has made possible a significant theoretical advance, launching a discussion on the housing theory, which was practically inexistent until then. In theoretical terms, the main point was the capacity of the approach to integrate agents and structures, standing out the position of P. King and his philosophy of housing, dealing the topic in a very individualistic way. In practical terms, the sociology of residence does not work out well enough to explain housing structures in “mobilized” societies. In order to overcome this problem, a intermediate theoretical framework is explained. This work set the “mobile residence” as a field where household, housing and mobility trajectories are linked.
