Homelessness is on the increase and more people are at the mercy of landlords due to unaffordable housing. \u003cem\u003ePlace and Identity: Home as Performance\u003c\/em\u003e highlights that the meaning of home is not just found within the bricks and mortar; it is constructed from the network of place, space and identity and the negotiation of conflict between those â it is not a fixed space but a link with land, ancestry and culture. This book fuses philosophy and the study of home based on many years of extensive research. Richardson looks at how the notion of home, or perhaps the lack of it, can affect identity and in turn the British housing market. This book argues that the concept of âhomeâ and physical housing are intrinsically linked and that until government and wider society understand the importance of home in relation to housing, the crisis is only likely to get worse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will be essential reading for postgraduat\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eForeword \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e1 Performing home: an introduction \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e2 Feeling at home: intersections of place and identity \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e3 Protecting home: negotiating conflict \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e4 Home screen: a public or private performance? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e5 Precarious home: the challenge of homelessness \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e6 Home and away: beyond bricks and mortar \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e7 Home is in the heart: authentic self and identity \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e8 Going home: conclusions \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReferences \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIndex \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CRC Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51018881139031,"sku":"9781032178578","price":999.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781032178578.jpg?v=1750778505","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/place-and-identity-9781032178578","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
