TY - THES M1 - master N2 - The Dutch housing associations and municipalities are becoming overburdened due to more responsibilities, while their budgets to intervene in the housing market decrease. Essentially, these trends represent decentralisation of the social domain and neo-liberalisation, and should have resulted in more effective policies and strategies on social housing (opportunity space). In order to understand the underlying mechanisms that affect this opportunity space, the city of Groningen is used as the location for research where there are social housing shortages, and increased costs of construction and plot allocation. Subsequently, five experts from the field of social housing were interviewed to better illustrate the current situation in the social housing market of Groningen.
