Reviews
“Michele Lancione has given us an immense gift with this pathbreaking and brilliant book. His arguments will be of immense meaning for social movements concerned with housing justice, many of which are grappling with regimes of property and the affective politics of home. The study of housing and homelessness will not be the same.” -- Ananya Roy, author of * Poverty Capital: Microfinance and the Making of Development * “By mobilizing a new methodological, conceptual, and political grammar in which home/homelessness are not opposite but coherent expressions of a wider function of patriarchal and racialized processes of expulsions and extractions, this book offers a whole new perspective to imagine housing futures toward housing justice in which ‘housing precarity’ is not only a site for deprivation and relegation or a ‘problem to be fixed’ but can also perform a new politics of inhabitation.” -- Raquel Rolnik, author of * Urban Warfare: Housing under the Empire of Finance *
