The Relationship

Chapter 4 begins by noting that contemporary discourse on the economic crisis is profoundly shaped by the language of horror and fear. To understand why, this chapter turns to four post-crisis horror films that explicitly link fear, foreclosure, and financialized credit: Drag Me to Hell (dir. Sam Raimi), Dream Home (dir. Pang Ho-cheung), Mother’s Day (dir. Darren Lynn Bousman), and Crawlspace (dir. Josh Stolberg). All four films take up real estate lending, mortgage speculation, and foreclosure risk and locate horror in the “dead pledge” of the mortgage. Using horror and the home-invasion genre to explore the shifting understandings of ownership consequent to the housing crisis, these films frighteningly literalize the doctrine of caveat emptor. Exploring the relationship between “paying back” and “payback,” they suggest that introduction of speculative risk has shifted the social force of credit contracts from the promise of trust to the threat of revenge.

This article examines British homeowners in Spain after the 2008 economic crisis and their struggles to navigate Spain’s troubled real estate sector. It argues that foreign residents previously embraced European cosmopolitanism but disputes over illegal home construction soured their opinion of European Union (EU) integration. Using ethnographic research and interviews, the article shows how these homeowners contested the idea that EU cohesion policies produced uniform legal systems related to housing and urban development. It also shows that while cosmopolitanism was often spurred at the level of formal politics, cosmopolitan ‘practices’ were subtly endorsed to delineate between those who had agency, and were successfully dealing with the crisis, and those who seemed to be floundering. The article confirms contemporary studies of EU regional polarization and the stalled project of creating ‘social Europe’, while showing how personal conceptions of mobility are highly linked to class.

Abstract When compared to other segments of the market, the agricultural real estate market is a completely different world. While there have been possibilities to observe price corrections over the recent years of the economic crisis, e.g., on the housing market in big cities, on the market of holiday apartments or building plots, the agricultural real estate market remains stable in relation to prices. The average transactional prices of agricultural real properties are gradually growing, and the number of purchase transactions is continuously increasing. Based to the above mentioned trends, the author of the present paper put forward the thesis that investing in agricultural real properties is economically justified during times of economic crisis. One of the best forms of capital investment is that of a limited joint-stock company (S.K.A.).
