Sold City - Teil 1: „Eigentum statt Menschenrecht“(2024)
The first part, "Property Instead of Human Rights," deals with the system of converting housing into corporate property. Banks, funds, and international investment capital have been pushing into cities for many years. Hardly any tenant is safe from having their apartment sold. When it comes to making money, they are the only ones who get in the way. Politicians seem to have completely abandoned their duty to provide for their citizens, and social housing construction has been dwindling for decades in favor of private investors, despite billions in subsidies. What is the situation in other large cities such as London or Vienna, which are also surrounded by investor capital?
