Abstract

2008 was the 25th anniversary of Housing, Theory and Society and its antecedent the Scandinavian Journal of Housing and Planning. To mark the occasion a plenary debate was organized at the European Network for Housing Research conference in Dublin on 8 July 2008. This special issue has arisen from that debate. The subject of the debate was the role of theory in housing research. Clearly this fits with the journal’s objective, established by former editor Jim Kemeny in 1999, which is to stimulate the application of theory to housing research. This followed Kemeny’s call in his book Housing and Social Theory (Kemeny 1992) for a more theoretically informed housing research. This call was accepted by many people and the articles published here reflect on the impact this has made.
