Description

This scholarly work explores the history of squatting in Sweden from 1968 to 2017, examining how civil society's relationship with the state shapes possibilities for collective action and contentious politics. The author employs the concepts of narrative consensus and discourse to analyse squatting as a form of political engagement within the Swedish welfare state context. The book investigates the conditions under which squatting has intensified and declined, drawing connections between political discourse, media representation, and social movement dynamics. Published by Routledge as part of the Cities and Society series, this academic text provides insights into housing activism, state-society relations, and the evolution of political protest in contemporary Sweden, making it essential reading for scholars of urban sociology, political science, and social movements.
