Abstract
This article gives an overview of housing policy in Denmark and Germany and tries to evaluate its consequences for the housing market in the two countries. The purpose is to discuss some general questions concerning the nature of housing policy and to compare two distinct fields of housing policy—social housing and rent control—where the two countries have quite different systems.
