The Vienna model and affordable housing in Copenhagen

Vienna is the only city in the world that has not suffered from the
consequences of ever increasing prices on housing. Why is that and what can we learn from the Vienna?

The Vienna model will be outlined and discussed in relation to the demand
for affordable housing in Copenhagen and the need for a new housing policy.

Comments by Walter Baier. From Vienna, economist, political coordinator of transform!europe – a think-tank network related to European Left:
Achievements of Red Vienna in the 20ies and 30ies, and how the Social
Democrats since the 1970ies lived on this heritage without augmenting it.
The housing policy of Vienna and ideas of a democratic transition to
socialism.

Questions and discussion.
