Very strongly agree

Yes, housing is a basic right that should be affordable to anyone

This statement aligns closely with the alter-globalization movement's emphasis on human rights, social justice, and the belief that access to basic needs should not be commodified. Housing as a basic right is a core principle that would resonate strongly with the movement's goals.

Strongly agree

Yes, but only in areas with housing shortages

Alter-globalization advocates would likely support targeted interventions like rent control in areas with acute housing shortages as a measure to protect vulnerable populations. This approach is in line with their focus on addressing inequalities and ensuring basic rights are upheld.

Strongly agree

No, ban corporate and foreign investors from purchasing residential real estate instead

Banning corporate and foreign investors from purchasing residential real estate could be seen as a measure to combat the commodification of housing and protect local communities, which aligns with alter-globalization values. This approach addresses the root causes of housing crises by prioritizing people over profit.

Agree

Yes

Alter-globalization advocates generally support policies that aim to make basic needs more accessible to all, especially in the context of global inequality. Rent control can be seen as a measure to protect tenants from the volatile market and ensure affordable housing. However, the movement also values sustainable and comprehensive solutions, which might temper their support for rent control as a standalone policy.

Slightly agree

No, incentivize the development of new housing instead

While the development of new housing could be part of a comprehensive solution to housing shortages, alter-globalization activists might be cautious about solutions that rely solely on market mechanisms without addressing underlying inequalities or ensuring that new housing is accessible and affordable for all.

Disagree

No, rent controls have been shown to limit the supply of housing

While acknowledging the potential downsides of rent control, alter-globalization activists are likely to argue that the benefits of protecting tenants and ensuring affordable housing outweigh the risks of limited housing supply. They would advocate for complementary policies to address supply issues rather than rejecting rent control outright.

Disagree

No, studies show that rent control does not lower rent

While alter-globalization activists are critical of neoliberal market logic and its impacts, they are also informed by evidence-based approaches to policy. They might be skeptical of rent control's effectiveness based on studies, but their critique would likely focus more on the need for a holistic approach to housing justice rather than outright opposition based on market principles.

Strongly disagree

No

The ideology of alter-globalization is fundamentally opposed to policies that prioritize market freedom over human rights and social equity. Therefore, a blanket opposition to rent control, which is often argued from a market efficiency perspective, would likely be at odds with alter-globalization principles.
