Published by Taylor & Francis and edited by Pernilla Hagbert, Henrik Gutson Larsen, Håkan Thörn and Cathrin Wasshede, this Open Access book critically engages with cohousing, placing it in the context of other housing forms and making comparisons across European countries by looking at cases in Denmark, Sweden, Hamburg and Barcelona. As well as providing a general overview of cohousing initiatives, the book analyses how cohousing interacts with local governements and other contextual elements such as urban activism, spatial logic and socio-ecology.
