The history of housing can also be told as the (cultural) history of a city
from its agricultural settlement by the Celts to the social housing of the
present. Within this dual history, political and economic developments,
as well as social norms, came to be reflected in forms of housing that,
at the end of the twentieth century, increasingly drew critique. Under
the influence of international developments, this has led to the diversity
characterizing society and housing construction today.
In this book, Wolfgang Förster—initiator of the International Building
Exhibition “Vienna: New Social Housing”—explores how the sociocultural
history of a city can be told through the development of its housing.
