Bringing Home the Housing Crisis: Politics, Precarity and Domicide in Austerity London

By (author) Mel Nowicki





This book is currently unavailable. Enquire to check if we can source a used copy


| book description |

Often portrayed as an apolitical space, this book demonstrates that home is in fact a highly political concept, with a range of groups in society excluded from a ‘right to home’ under current UK policies. Drawing on resident interviews and analysis of political and media attitudes across three case studies – the criminalisation of squatting, the bedroom tax and family homelessness – the book explores the ways in which legislative and policy changes dismantle people’s rights to secure, decent and affordable housing by framing them as undeserving.
