离婚通常会给男女双方带来一系列经济后果,其中最重要的是前伴侣的住房状况。然而,到目前为止,这一生活事件的住房后果,特别是制度安排对住房后果的影响,一直是一个被忽视的话题。本文着重于这一过程的一个方面,更具体地说,离婚对房主保有权变化的影响,使用比较面板数据的12个欧洲国家。它的结论是,虽然离婚显着提高了在所有考虑中的国家的房主经历的保有权变化的几率,这个过程是相当相似的欧洲福利国家。虽然减轻离婚对妇女的经济后果的体制安排似乎不能解释各国之间的差异,但房主保有权变化的跨国差异部分受到社会住房政策和家庭支持程度的影响。
Divorce usually carries a range of economic consequences for both men and women, the housing situation of the ex-partners being among the most important ones. So far, however, the housing consequences of this life event, and in particular the way these are influenced by institutional arrangements, have been somewhat of a neglected topic. This paper focuses on one aspect of this process, more specifically the impact of divorce on tenure changes of homeowners, using comparative panel data for 12 European countries. It is concluded that although divorce significantly raises the odds of experiencing a tenure change for homeowners in all countries under consideration, this process is fairly similar across European welfare states. While institutional arrangements mitigating the economic consequences of divorce for women do not seem to explain much variation between countries, cross-national differences in tenure changes for homeowners are partly influenced by social housing policies and the extent of family support.
