The UK is experiencing a housing crisis unlike any other.
Homelessness is on the increase and more people are at the mercy of
landlords due to unaffordable housing. Place and Identity: Home as
Performance 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 - 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 'home' 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. This book will be essential reading for postgraduate
students whose interest is in housing and social policy, as well as
appealing to those working in the areas of implementing and
changing policy within government and professional spaces.
