Abstract
This editorial frames housing justice as a question of spatial and temporal struggle, engaging the longue durée of dispossession, endurance, and collective transformation. From the weaponisation of space–time in conditions of settler colonial domination to the quieter bureaucratic violence of eviction, precarity, and financialisation in global cities, housing injustice emerges as a slow, iterative process rather than a sudden rupture. The contributions in this issue trace everyday infrastructures of endurance, community archives of resistance, and collective alternatives such as community land trusts and grassroots housing movements. Together, they highlight how struggles for housing justice are sustained through memory, improvisation, legal intervention, and coalition-building across generations. By foregrounding endurance, temporality, and spatial politics, this editorial positions housing justice as an unfinished, relational, and deeply political project.
