Footwork is an original street-corner ethnography drawing on the
themes of urban regeneration, lost space and the 24-hour city. From
the rough sleeping homeless to street drinkers and sex workers, it
shows how urban modernisation, development and austerity politics
impact the hidden lives of people living and working on the
streets. To create this anthropology of the modern British city,
Footwork follows the work of a team of outreach workers in Cardiff,
tasked to look out for the homeless and others similarly
vulnerable, harried and exposed. Tom Hall's fieldwork study
encompasses aspects of urban geography, care work and street-level
poverty, violence and isolation, this book reveals the stories of
the vulnerable and isolated - people living in the city we often
choose to ignore.
