Autorenporträt
Enik¿ Vincze is a professor at Babe¿-Bolyai University, Cluj, Romania. Initiator of the local movement C¿¿i Sociale ACUM!/ Social Housing NOW!, she is also involved in national and international housing justice struggles. In her early career, Enik¿ published on nationalism, feminism, and the socio-spatial marginalization of impoverished Roma. In the past ten years, she conducted academic and militant research on the spatialization and racialization of socio-economic inequalities, local and global politics of housing, territorial and environmental injustice, urban and real estate development, housing regimes in state socialism and neoliberal capitalism, and uneven development and capitalist transformations in Romania. She co-edited the following volumes published in 2018: Racialized Labour in Romania: Spaces of Marginality at the Periphery of Global Capitalism; The Romani Women's Movement: Struggles and Debates in Central and Eastern Europe (Routledge). Among her articles written in 2023 are "The making of a racialized surplus population. Romania's labor-housing nexus" (Focaal, 97: 57-72); "Deindustrialization and the real-estate-development-driven housing regime. The case of Romania in global context" (Studia UBB Sociologia, 68, 1: 25-73); "Residualized public housing in Romania: peripheralization of 'the social' and the racialization of 'unhouseables' " (IJURR, forthcoming). She acted as the director of the project that inspired the present book. Ioana Florea is a sociologist working on urban transformations and manifestations of uneven development in Eastern European cities. She has collaborated as a researcher with The Babe¿-Bolyai University, The University of Gothenburg, and Södertörn University. Ioana is co-author of the monograph Contemporary Housing Struggles. A Structural Field of Contention Approach (2022). Her recent contributions on housing struggles are published in Global Urbanism. Knowledge, Power and the City (Routledge, 2021) and Radical Housing: Art, Struggle, Care (2021). Her co-authored articles are published in the Journal of Political Ecology, Radical Housing Journal, Critical Housing Analysis, and Voluntas. She has been engaged for more than 15 years in policy- and action-orienting research, co-authoring an unprecedented country report Come Closer. Inclusion and Exclusion of Roma in Present Day Romanian Society (2008). Since 2016, she has been involved as an action-researcher for the Common Front for Housing Rights in Romania and for the European Action Coalition for the Right to Housing and to the City. Manuel B.

He has published on financialization, redlining, social and financial exclusion, neoliberalism, mortgage markets, the privatization of social housing, neighborhood decline, gentrification, and the Anglo-American hegemony in academic research and writing. He is the author of Place, Exclusion, and Mortgage Markets (2011) and The Financialization of Housing: A Political Economy Approach (Routledge, 2016) and the editor of Subprime Cities: The Political Economy of Mortgage Markets (2012).
