German Housing Policy since the Foundation of the German Empire

The aim of the investigation is, first, to analyse, how and in what extend the housing economy – under special circumstances – was subordinated to the state’s responsibility and therefore an active housing policy was needed. Second, on the basis of the gained results, the carried housing policy since the First World War should be subject to a detailed analysis.
The discussion of necessity and extent of state housing policy is done on the basis of the construction liberalism before 1914. The second task of investigation is the representation of the housing policy development in Germany and its results in the interwar period and the period after 1945. In matter-of-fact terms, the arguments focus primarily on housing policy activities of the German Empire and of the Federal Republic of Germany respectively.
