How zines can share knowledge about shrinking domesticity

Across the globe, including in the US, there has been an increasing trend towards housing with smaller living spaces, including tiny housing, co-living, and micro-flats. During a recent conference, hosted by the LSE Phelan US Centre, on housing and homelessness in the US and other countries, participants produced the “The Housing Squeeze Zine.” Jessie Speer and David Madden write that zines offer an opportunity to share academic research in spontaneous, low-cost, and immediate ways and to gain a wider audience compared to traditional academic publications.
