Mini Episode: Alex Baumann on Public Housing and Degrowth

Post-Growth Australia Podcast welcomes back Dr. Alex Baumann for a mini episode on housing and Degrowth.
Alex was one of our star guests a couple of years ago, whose epsiode, "A Public Housing Revolution for Degrowth with Dr Alex Baumann (https://pgap.fireside.fm/degrowthousing)" remains one of PGAP's highest performing episodes.
Alex returns to update us on the following:
The launch of the De Gruyter Degrowth Handbook (https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/9783110778359/html) and most specifically, the chapter, cowritten by Alex and Samuel Alexander: "Land Commodification: A Structural Barrier to Degrowth Transition."
An article in The Conversation: "Huge housing costs make us slaves to our jobs and unsustainable growth. But there’s another way (https://theconversation.com/huge-housing-costs-make-us-slaves-to-our-jobs-and-unsustainable-growth-but-theres-another-way-203144)".
The strategy paper "LAND COMMODIFICATION AS A BARRIER TO POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC AGENCY: A DEGROWTH PERSPECTIVE (https://www.ppesydney.net/content/uploads/2021/06/19_Baumann-Alexander-and-Burdon1.pdf)"
Alex is a lecturer at the 'Sustainable Futures' course at the University of Western Sydney. A video was made with the students of the course, which can be seen on YouTube here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=roi4WiJakoY).
PGAP is delighted to be returning for a SIXTH season with a mix of full length episodes as well as mini episodes with returning guests. We hope to make this format accessible to everyone, whether you are looking for a briefer or more immersive listen.
