Specificatii
It is all too easy to assume that social service programs respond
to homelessness, seeking to prevent and understand it. The Value of
Homelessness, however, argues that homelessness today is an effect
of social services and sciences, which shape not only what counts
as such but what will?or ultimately won't?be done about it. Through
a history of U.S. housing insecurity from the 1930s to the present,
Craig Willse traces the emergence and consolidation of a homeless
services industry. How to most efficiently allocate resources to
control ongoing insecurity has become the goal, he shows, rather
than how to eradicate the social, economic, and political bases of
housing needs. Drawing on his own years of work in homeless
advocacy and activist settings, as well as interviews conducted
with program managers, counselors, and staff at homeless services
organizations in New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Seattle,
Willse provides the first analysis of how housing insecurity
becomes organized as a governable social problem.An unprecedented
and powerful historical account of the development of contemporary
ideas about homelessness and how to manage homelessness, The Value
of Homelessness offers new ways for students and scholars of social
work, urban inequality, racial capitalism, and political theory to
comprehend the central role of homelessness in governance and
economy today.
