On shaky grounds: The case for the privatization of the public housing sector in the Netherlands
The changing role of the Dutch social rented sector
The article traces the evolution of the research interests of Frans Dieleman, an academic who combined the development of analytical models with explorations of the policy implications of the changing structure of housing markets. During his long career as a professor of geography, he championed international cooperation in research and played a major role in disseminating the results of Dutch academic studies to an international audience. His own work was concentrated on the analysis of residential mobility. But much of that work also revealed his interest in applying scholarly insights to policy issues. Throughout his career he showed a deep commitment to improving the functioning of the social rented sector in the Dutch housing market. After reviewing some of Frans Dieleman’s major contributions to the understanding of the housing market, the article follows in his footsteps by analyzing the current use of social rented housing. In this way, this article provides an update on his field of interest based on recent survey data that underlines the validity of his insights.PostprintPeer reviewe

139842-a.pdf (preprint version ) (Open Access)Current projects to upgrade public spaces in Western cities seek to produce secured space by improving safety and decrease feelings of fear, and to produce themed space by promoting urban entertainment or fantasy. This study examines how ‘fear’ and ‘fantasy’ influence urban design and management of two public spaces in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. It traces social antecedents for the development of secured and themed public space, such as a growing differentiation of urban lifestyles, and proposes a new technique for analysing public spaces. The case studies differ in design and management: one is secured, the other themed. However, each secured space contains an element of ‘fantasy’, and each themed space an element of ‘fear’.18 p

Social Housing and Social Exclusion in the Netherlands
After a hesitant start, the debate on poverty and social exclusion gained a firm position on the agenda in the Netherlands. When the issue emerged in Europe, the initial position of the Dutch was that their low-income households were guaranteed to meet their basic needs by the rather
generous social security system, national health insurance, as well as the large social rented sector. Poverty was supposed to be absent. Nevertheless, the debate gained momentum rapidly. One reason was a highly publicized statement by one of the Catholic bishops in the Netherlands who quoted the biblical phrase that "people were allowed to steal bread if they
were too poor to feed their children". The protracted debate that followed in the mass-media led to a new political awareness of persisting poverty among cabinet ministers. Even the prime minister found it necessary to go on record on the issue. A second impetus for the debate was the redefinition of the issue in terms of social exclusion rather than poverty as such. In the
brief for this working group issued by Holt-Jensen (1998) this interpretation is underlined. He described social exclusion in terms that can be summarized as follows:
Exclusion from the political arena, denying participation in decision-making, from the cultural arena restricting access to channels of cultural communication, and from the economic arena, the labour market in particular. In combination, this leads to the emergence of a marginalised group often concentrated in deprived inner-city tenements or large-scale peripheral housing
