社会の主流や住宅体制の周辺部に位置するホームレスの人びとを陥れ、地位を小さなものにする隠れた力学を暴く。長期間のフィールドワークに基づいたエスノグラフィーの手法で、日本の状況を論じる一冊。This book discloses the hidden dynamics of state rescaling that ensnares homeless people at the fringes of mainstream society and housing regimes. The book develops rich context-based arguments of homelessness, policy, and social movements in Japan. It explains the oppressive effects of rescaling and its limits in the interplay of the state, domiciled society, public space, class formation, social movements, and capitalism.
