  5. Horizontal Collectivism 'It is non-hierarchical, consensus decision-making…pretty much everything you can see that isn't in someone's room, is either communal or you could be forgiven for seeing it as communal…' Housing Co-op Member

  6. Horizontal Individualism 'Could the CLT own the freehold and lease it back to you?' 'No, no, we want the freehold!' Franklin CLT, Steering Group Meeting

  7. Vertical Individualism '…even in the cooperative movement, the ‘individual landlord’ has prevailed over the ‘collective dweller’ type of tenure' Birchall, 1992

  8. Vertical Collectivism ‘Giroscope Limited has an Executive Committee of 3 members…from a variety of backgrounds relevant to the work of the charity…A scheme of delegation is in place and day to day responsibility for the provision of the services rests with the Co-ordinator’ Giroscope, 2013

  9. Discussion • What does this tell us about the nature of community-led housing? • What type of collectivism is current policy trying to engender? • How does the dominant national tendency structure and constrain local collectivism?
