Abstract

In a recent article in Environment and Planning A , Cardoso and Short discussed a concept called ‘forms of housing production’. In this paper, 1 comment on the arguments they associated with the concept. I suggest that, despite their attempts to situate themselves within the Marxist tradition, Cardoso and Short have neglected and misinterpreted much of the Marxist work on housing of the past decade. Furthermore, their particular interpretation of the social relations of housing provision contains theoretical errors which make it of little practical use.
