Forty Years of Self-Management in Popular Housing in Uruguay: The “FUCVAM Model”

Benjamín Nahoum

Chapter 8 in Cooperatives and Socialism, 2013, pp 190-211 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract After three pioneer cases,1 the housing cooperative movement in Uruguay took off in late 1968, when Law 13.728, known as the Housing Law, was passed (rightly considered one of the best ever approved by the Uruguayan Parliament). For the first time, it opened up the possibility of public financing for families to build the housing they needed without intermediaries.
