Desigualdades em Tempos de Crise: Vulnerabilidades Habitacionais e Socioeconómicas na Área Metropolitana de Lisboa

Abstract

This article analyses the relationship between the different components of resource inequalities, with a special focus on housing and financial autonomy, as well as their contribution towards the emergence of vulnerabilities which are being aggravated in the context of the actual economic and financial crisis. Using the data set obtained through a survey conducted with 1500 residents of LMA, the study establishes a comparison between different spatial contexts. The results of the study identify a relationship between inequalities and financial and housing vulnerabilities, and present a statistical model which incorporates the various analysis dimensions.
