“…These include an increase in unemployment, stricter mortgage lending, a substantial rise in the size of down-payment needed for a mortgage deposit and reforms to the social security system (Kemp, 2015;Powell, 2015). Many aspiring homeowners have therefore struggled to realise their ambitions (Clapham et al, 2014).…”

“…This expansion of the PRS reflects broader processes of neoliberal welfare state restructuring that have gathered pace in the UK, and internationally, since the 1980s. These processes have reduced the welfare safety-net for citizens, requiring them instead to take responsibility for their own life outcomes through the market (Kemp, 2015;McKee, 2012;Forrest and Hirayama, 2009). …”

'Generation rent' and the ability to 'settle down': economic and geographical variation in young people's housing transitions. Journal of Youth Studies, 20(1), pp. 63-78.There may be differences between this version and the published version. You are advised to consult the publisher's version if you wish to cite from it.http://eprints.gla.ac.uk/147165/ AbstractThe term 'Generation Rent' denotes young people who are increasingly living in the private rented sector for longer periods of their lives because they are unable to access homeownership or social housing. Drawing on qualitative data from two studies with young people and keyactors, this paper considers the phenomenon of 'Generation Rent' from the perspective of youth transitions and the concept of 'home'. These frameworks posit that young people leaving the parental home traverse housing and labour markets until they reach a point of 'settling down'. However, our data indicate that many young people face difficulties in this 'settling' process as they have to contend with insecure housing, unstable employment and welfare cuts which often force them to be flexible and mobile. This leaves many feeling frustrated as they struggle to remain fixed in place in order to 'settle down' and benefit from the positive qualities of home. Taking a Scottish focus, this paper further highlights the geographical dimension to these challenges and argues that those living in expensive and/or rural areas may find it particularly difficult to settle down.

“…Kljub obdobju splošnega upada je ZNS v zahodnoevropskih državah vedno imel pomembno vlogo in pričakuje se, da bo tako tudi v prihodnje (Gray in McAnulty, 2008;Hulse in Pawson, 2010;Kemp, 2011;Crook in Kemp, 2014). V Veliki Britaniji naj bi se ta sektor po določenem obdobju upada celo povečal (Kemp, 2015). Poleg tega ZNS vse bolj uporabljajo družbene skupine z nižjimi dohodki, ki bi v preteklosti živele v socialnih stanovanjih, vendar se je število teh postopoma zmanjšalo in tako so postala manj dostopna različnim kategorijam gospodinjstev z nizkimi dohodki (Scanlon in Kochan, 2011).…”

“…Tudi drugi avtorji (na primer Turner idr., 1992;Struyk, 1996;Mandič, 2000, Priemus in Mandič, 2000Donner, 2006) Ker tema do zdaj v Srednji in Vzhodni Evropi še ni bila dovolj raziskana, še ni na voljo empirično podkrepljene in prepričljive razlage, zakaj se postsocialistične države na splošno še naprej ne zmenijo za ZNS. Peter Kemp (1987Kemp ( , 2015 v delih na to temo poudarja, da je zasebni najem (kot vse druge pravice do posesti stanovanja) institucija z razmeroma ustaljenimi značilnostmi, ki veljajo za določeno časovno obdobje. Po njegovem mnenju prav ta dolgotrajnost različnih pravic do posesti stanovanja trgu pomaga, da deluje.…”

Je zasebni najemni sektor v Sloveniji zaželen? Proučitev vloge države pri njegovem razvoju

Je zasebni najemni sektor v Sloveniji zaželen? Proučitev vloge države pri njegovem razvojuZasebni najemni sektor (ZNS) v Sloveniji vse od konca druge svetovne vojne deluje brez uradnega priznanja in podpore vladne politike. V članku so proučeni razlogi, zaradi katerih pristojne državne ustanove ta sektor vztrajno zapostavljajo. Avtor v razpravi najprej na kratko pregleda razvoj državne stanovanjske politike, ki je vse od obsežnih stanovanjskih reform v začetku 90. let 20. stoletja globoko zakoreninjena v filozofijo »pristopa omogočanja«. Na podlagi izsledkov ankete, opravljene med ključnimi državnimi ustanovami, odgovornimi za stanovanjsko oskrbo, je proučena vloga države pri razvoju zasebnega najemnega sektorja po letu 1991, ko je Slovenija uvedla sistem tržnega gospodarstva. Odgovori anketirancev sicer kažejo, da se proučevane državne ustanove na splošno zavedajo vseh pomanjkljivosti trenutnega zasebnega najemnega sektorja, vendar do zdaj še niso resno podprle njegovega razvoja. Avtor zato sklepa, da lahko dejstvo, da potrebni ukrepi, ki bi podprli razvoj in formalno delovanje zasebnega najemnega sektorja, še niso bili sprejeti, pripišemo nenaklonjenosti oblikovalcev politike do tega sektorja.Ključne besede: zasebni najemni sektor, struktura pravic do posesti stanovanja, stanovanjska politika, načelo omogočanja, državne ustanove, Slovenija

The heightened role of the sector has led to consideration as to how it should be regulated, including recent examinations of European tenancy regulations and rent controls (Deschermeier, Haas, Hude, & Voigtl€ ander, 2016;Huisman, 2016).…”

The convergence, divergence and changing geography of regulation in the UK's private rented sector

The role of the private rented sector (PRS) has grown in many parts of Europe in recent years, both as an increasing component of housing systems and as the effects of the global financial crisis become apparent. In the UK, the role of the sector has deepened and is increasingly relied upon to house growing and diverse proportions of the population for longer periods of time. This has renewed interest in the regulation of the sector in order to improve its suitability and desirability for tenants. There has been increasing convergence in regulatory approaches between some jurisdictions of the UK, such as Scotland and Wales, and divergence between others, such as England where regulation remains a residual policy concern. Using examples of tenure security, landlord regulation and affordability, this policy review seeks to highlight the emerging differences in the way the PRS is regulated within the UK. It argues that the likely consequence of these differences is that there may be increased variation in the effects and experience of renting in the PRS, in relation to eviction protections and landlord management standards. The paper shows how jurisdictions in Scotland, and to a lesser extent Wales and Northern Ireland, are moving towards models of regulation that more closely mirror those used in Western European countries, with England becoming an outlier in the way in which it regulates private renting.
