Citations in the corpus

• The Internet of Landlords: Digital Platforms and New Mechanisms of Rentier Capitalism (2020, background): “This strategy of assetisation is not only limited to real estate, but rather has become “ a principal component of fi nancialisation and an important material mechanism driving neoliberalisation ” (Ward and Swyngedouw 2018:1078).”
• The financialization of Canadian multi-family rental housing: From trailer to tower (2020, background): “As buildings are acquired by financial vehicles, assetization contributes to the “supply-side of financialization” (Ward & Swyngedouw, 2018), generating a growing stock of new financial assets that will contribute to accumulation through financial channels going forward.”
• Land financialisation and the financing of urban development in China (2019, background): “Ward and Swyngedouw (2018) studied the ‘assetization’ of land in northwest England and show how the property developer, the Peel Group, gained the land of the Manchester Ship Canal for its land bank and subsequently used this land asset to mobilise capital in the capital market.”
• The de-financialization of housing: towards a research agenda (2020, background): “Indeed, how such local housing initiatives can become more mainstream and help to shape and reshape financializing housing markets ‘from the ground up’ (Ward and Swyngedouw, 2018), is a question which certainly deserves more research attention.”
• Automated landlord: Digital technologies and post-crisis financial accumulation (2019, background): “As a result of neoliberal restructuring, today it is land, housing, and infrastructure that serve as key asset streams for finance, and which are therefore subject to prospecting logics (Allon and Barrett, 2018; Ward and Swyngedouw, 2018).”
