Abstract
Privatisation has been part of Israeli housing policy since the first public housing units were built in 1949. It has involved the sale of publicly-owned dwellings to sitting tenants, but also the shift to residents of responsibilities usually associated with ownership, such as maintenance and tax liabilities. The evolution of this policy is examined by considering the social, economic and political factors which have shaped the development of Israeli public housing policy from its beginning.
