Abstract

This article has a two-fold purpose: first, to offer as complete an inventory as possible of the literature written on the economics of housing, classifying this literature according to subject matter (in this sense, the article takes on the appearance of an annotated bibliography); and second, to take a hard look at the present state of economic theory in this field.
