Bringing Home the Housing Crisis Mel Nowicki

Often portrayed as an apolitical space, this book demonstrates that home is in fact a highly political concept, with some vulnerable groups in society excluded from a right to home under current policy regimes in the UK.
Focusing on three case studies - the criminalisation of squatting, the bedroom tax, and family homelessness - it explores the legislative changes dismantling people's rights to decent and affordable housing.
