It describes how people affected by homelessness are perceived as objects through the process of Othering. It also provides examples of how such Othering can be overcome through collaboration, and by providing a platform for people affected by homelessness.\n\nThe volume argues that stereotypical representations of homelessness, while useful for charity fundraising, do more harm than good. It concludes that organisations tasked with dealing with homelessness must include greater representation from people with direct ‘lived experience’ of homelessness.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Housing \u0026amp; homelessness [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Housing \u0026amp; homelessness\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Housing%20\u0026amp;%20homelessness%20%5BJFFB%5D%22\"\u003eJFFB\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"OUP Oxford","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52516333781272,"sku":"9780197267240","price":59.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780197267240.jpg?v=1786682623","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/representing-homelessness-hardback-9780197267240","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
