Bringing Home the Housing Crisis: Politics, Precarity and Domicide in Austerity London (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781447361862)

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.
