Current Projects
The Hegemonic Crisis of the German Housing Regime: Conflicts and Coalitions around the State, Nature, and Technology in Emerging Spaces of Transformation.
On the one hand, I examine how the social hegemony of fossil capital and neoliberal housing policy has become embedded in the spatial structures of the German housing regime, thereby obstructing a post-neoliberal and post-fossil transformation. On the other hand, I analyse how contested transformation processes are reshaping the spatial configuration of the German housing regime, as well as the political strategies, material interests, and power relations underlying these spatial reconfigurations.
A central premise of the research project is that the German housing regime is undergoing a crisis of hegemony. This crisis is creating new spaces of transformation in which the future of housing is being contested.
