Abstract
In this brief article, we reflect on the contribution of Martin Lux and Petr Sunega to the role of sociology in the domain of housing economics. Applauding the attempt at injecting a more sociologically informed housing economics, we draw attention to the continuous need to guard against over-abstraction and to ensure that housing’s role as a major source of material inequality in many societies must be fully recognized.
