Growth in the housing sector, when we have

chronic shortage of houses, MUST be a good thing, right?

Background

mutualism and economic

degrowth

Unpacking Growth

Cristina Cerulli / School of Architecture / University of Sheffield / c.c.erulli@sheffield.ac.uk

Unpacking GrowthThe current economic crisis is having the welcome effect of bringing issues of sustainable consumption and social and environmental justice to the fore and making economic arguments against incontrollable growth that have been discussed since the seventies more mainstream

Donella Meadows / The Limits to Growth/ Georgescu-Roegen / enjoyment of life / French Decroissance project/ la joie de vivre / happiness economics

Questioning the desirability of growth as the ultimate aim of socio-technical systems in not a new idea.

Sustainable Degrowth

“equitable downscaling of production and consumption that increases human well-being and enhances ecological conditions at the local and global level, in the short and long term”(F. Schneider et al. 2010).

Transition towns / green movements / ethical consumption / cohousing

Sustainable DegrowthMutuality seems to be a common thread running through those initiatives, projects and experiments where self-interest is aligned with common purposes and collective benefit and it might be identified as a key premise of ‘sustainable degrowth’

“equitable downscaling of production and consumption that increases human well-being and enhances ecological conditions at the local and global level, in the short and long term”

(F. Schneider et al. 2010).

Transition towns / green movements / ethical consumption / cohousing

Mutualitymutuality is attractive because it seems to reconcile a market economy with the promise of social cohesion and self-organisation, whilst rejecting the individualism and consumerism of the marketNew Labour/ Third Way/ New MutualismConservative / Big Society

Collective Custom BuildResearch / KT Project / Motivating Collective Custom BuildMCCB is a research project based at the University of Sheffield.[part of AHRC-funded Home Improvements Knowledge Exchange] in collaboration with architectural practice Ash Sakula Design for Homes alongside other industry partners.

This research identified the legal, financial, statutory, institutional, and other barriers that currently prevent the adoption of collective custom build as a viable housing procurement strategy. It explores the positive drivers for change: on the one hand, benefits for developers in bringing forward land, and on the other, untapped expertise, time and social capital among co-investors.http://www.collectivecustombuild.org/And also http://mccbhomeimprovements.wordpress.com/
