Opis

This book is the first to take an in-depth examination of marginalisation and events. The volume applies a critical approach to events as they relate to marginalisation that seeks to address the ‘how’ and ‘why’ and to provide a holistic picture of their place and influence in the lives of marginalised individuals and communities.
