Escribí esta reseña del libro editado por Iban Díaz y María Barrero "Turismo, desarrollo urbano y crisis en las grandes ciudades andaluzas". Relevante lectura para entender la turistificación y sus costes sociales en Andalucía. estudiosgeograficos.revistas.csic.es/index.php/estu…

Interesante reportaje sobre la crisis de la vivienda. No es un problema de oferta. No es necesario construir ni ocupar aún más el territorio. La vivienda como factor de empobrecimiento. Creciente desigualdad entre quienes tienen propiedad y quienes no. lavozdelanzarote.com/ekonomus/vivie…

As Airbnb registration becomes compulsory, we argue licensing turns short-term rentals into legally protected assets —paradoxically limiting state control while embedding them in housing financialization. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/an…
