Housing Trap - How to Build a City, Part One w/ Andrew Schustek and Samuel Stein

Nostalgia Trap fellow traveler and guest host Andrew Schustek continues our series of conversations on the political economy of housing in the 21st century. This week, Andrew talks with geographer, urban planner and housing policy analyst Samuel Stein, whose book Capital City: Gentrification and the Real Estate State is already a classic of modern urban studies and required reading for anyone interested in a progressive vision of city planning. In this episode, Andrew and Sam introduce us to the major structures of the "real estate state" and imagine pathways to a future of lower rents and better living. Subscribe to listen to Part Two
