Keywords:

The main topic of the paper is squatting as a model of housing. It has appeared and developed in times of great housing availability for vulnerable populations. The topic belongs to the housing policy research field and represents neglected and „forgotten“themes, which in our neoliberal world of rising social inequities, starts again to be important. Research methods are: in view in the literature, case studies (cities like London - UK, Madrid, Barcelona – Spain, and Amsterdam - Netherlands) and comparative method with generalization (learning from these experiences) for tailoring housing policy, sensible to vulnerable population`s needs. The main research findings are that squatting put a different (rather radical) light on the „right to housing“ as a prerequisite for a decent quality of life for each person and society too.
