The Dutch model of social rental housing is often seen as a good practice for other European coun-tries.

When policy makers claim that rented housing has to become more competitive, there is no consensus on what competition in this context actually means. The same holds true for scientific housing research: Theories that have utilized the economic concept of competition tend to rely on implicit definitions or focus on selected aspects. In...

European social housing history can be interpreted through the combination of two complementary notions: path dependency and change.
