L’accession à la propriété privée dans les villes polonaises : un défi de transition post-socialiste

Abstract

The reintroduction of the concept of private property and the establishment of a real estate market in Poland since 1989, have permanently changed the housing sector. The homeownership was restored; however, its implementation has not been simple and resulted in the creation of complex forms of ownership. This paper aims at explaining in detail how the housing sector has been restructured, shedding the light on the different ownership status that have multiplied in the recent years. Additionally, it analyses contemporary social and spatial conflicts provoked by changes in the ownership.
