The volume Si affitta a fuorisede. Mercati, pratiche e relazioni, edited by Giuliana Costa and Tommaso Frangioni and published by LetteraVentidue, is now available.
The book explores one of the most pressing issues facing contemporary university cities: access to housing for students living away from home. Through an analysis of housing trajectories, everyday practices, and the relationships that develop within the private rental market, the volume examines the connections between student mobility, housing policies, and the right to education.
Drawing on the lived experiences of students who relocate to pursue their studies, the editors offer a multidimensional perspective on the challenges of accessing housing. The book highlights how urban contexts, housing market dynamics, and public policies shape both opportunities and inequalities. It also emphasizes the close relationship between the right to education and the right to housing, providing valuable insights for research and the ongoing debate on urban policies.
The volume is edited by Giuliana Costa, Associate Professor of Sociology at Politecnico di Milano, and Tommaso Frangioni, a researcher whose work focuses on housing, public policies, and people's lived experiences.
