Abstract

Housing is a field known for its ‘wicked problems’. Wicked problems are those that are difficult to solve. They are often very poorly defined, and it is usually hard to work out whose responsibility it is to deal with them. They make us uncomfortable. But they are also really important, because they allow us to see more clearly the systems in which we operate. They force us to examine the assumptions we are making. Who thinks this is a problem? Why do they think it is a problem? How are they defining the problem? What happens as a result of their approach? We can think about this in terms of advantages and disadvantages. Does it help anyone see this as a problem? How?
