The topics and areas of interest for publication include, but are not limited to: Production, development and transformations of residential habitat; Experience of inhabiting, identity and role of the inhabitant; Territorial management, public territorial policies and social participation; Urban land, access to housing and the real estate market; Urban transformations, expansion, segregation and gentrification; Vulnerability, poverty and precarious settlements; Residential design, construction techniques and materials of habitat; Quality of life, sustainability, habitability and residential satisfaction; Socio-natural risks and disasters in the urban and rural environment; Mobility, displacement and migration
