{"product_id":"the-homeless-person-in-contemporary-cameron-parsell-9780367606978","title":"The Homeless Person in Contemporary Society","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe homeless person is thought to be different. Whereas we get to determine our difference or sameness, the homeless person's difference is imposed upon them and assumed to be known because of their homelessness. Exclusion from housing - either a commodity that should be accessed from the market or social provision - signifies the homeless person's incapacities and failure to function in what are presented as unproblematic social systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing on a program of research spanning ten years, this book provides an empirically grounded account of the lives and identities of people who are homeless. It illustrates that people with chronic experiences of homelessness have relatively predictable biographies characterised by exclusion, poverty, and trauma from early in life. Early experiences of exclusion continue to pervade the lives of people who are homeless in adulthood, yet they identify with family and normative values as a means of imaging aspirational futures. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Cameron Parsell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367606976\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367606978\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/30\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 140\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.37lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.30d","brand":"Cameron Parsell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43982827421951,"sku":"9780367606978","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a3432e42-4da3-41f6-8b25-1b7e70de9a3b.jpg?v=1683263232","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-homeless-person-in-contemporary-cameron-parsell-9780367606978","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
