ISBN: 9781626378537 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 25-30 dni roboczych. How do individuals move from being homeless to finding safe, stable, and secure places to live? Can we recreate the conditions that helped them most? What policies are needed to support what worked-and to remove common obstacles?

Hobo Jungle: A Homeless Community in Paradise
ISBN: 9781626378728 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 25-30 dni roboczych. For many decades and for many reasons, people who are homeless have chosen to live in camps or other makeshift settings, even when shelters are available. Is this an act of resistance? Of self-preservation? Or are they simply too addicted, too mentally ill, or too criminal to adapt to the rules and regulations of shelter life? To address these questions, Michele Wakin explores the evolution of unsheltered homelessness through an evocative portrait of a jungle encampment that has endured since the Great Depression in one of the most opulent cities on California's south coast.

Pressure Cooker: Why Home Cooking Won't Solve Our Problems and What We Can Do About It
ISBN: 9780190663308 / Miękka / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych. Food is at the center of national debates about how Americans live and the future of the planet. Not everyone agrees about how to reform our relationship to food, but one suggestion rises above the din: home-cooked meals. Amid concerns about obesity and diabetes, unpronounceable ingredients, and the environmental footprint of industrial agriculture, food reformers implore parents to slow down, cook from scratch, and gather around the dinner table. Voting with your fork, they argue, will lead to happier and healthier families. But is it really that simple? Informed by extensive interviews and...

The Poverty of Nations: A Relational Perspective
ISBN: 9781447343332 / Miękka / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 25-30 dni roboczych. In this persuasive study, social welfare and policy expert Paul Spicker makes a case for a relational view of poverty. Poverty is much more than a lack of resources. It involves a complex set of social relationships, such as economic disadvantage, insecurity or a lack of rights. These relational elements tell us what poverty is - what it consists of, what poor people are experiencing, and what problems need to be addressed. This book examines poverty in the context of the economy, society and the political community, considering how states can respond to issues of inequality, exclusion...
