Recenzii
"This outstanding book challenges us to re-think the scale and experience of homelessness in a global city like London. The young lives describe here are 'fixed in mobility' but struggle to find a refuge in an unforgiving and cruel world. A must-read book for anyone who really cares about urban life."
-Professor Les Back, Goldsmiths, University of London
"Stereotypes and prejudices about the homeless abound. Beneath these lies a complex world of experiences and histories which are lived out in the homeless spaces and institutions of London. Young Homeless People and Urban Space provides a textured and nuanced account of what it means to be homeless and young in a city marked by inequalities, exclusions and brutal cuts in public expenditure. This is an excellent and compelling book which will be of interest to academics, urban policy makers and activists interested in what homeless means in the contemporary global city."
-Professor Sophie Watson, The Open University
"This fluently composed account of precarious dwelling and youth homelessness is vitally attuned to the rhythms of the contemporary global city. Academic understandings of mobility, transnationalism, surveillance and belonging are brought to life in the intimate biographies that unfold. The insights generated from displaced young people are rich and illuminating, supported as they are by intelligent and articulate interpretations of their lives. This makes for a book that is written with great purpose and care which truly deserves to be read."
-Professor Anoop Nayak, Newcastle University
"This is a personal, thought-provoking book that challenges and informs our understanding of homelessness in a global city like London. Young Homeless People and Urban Space would be a useful resource for sociologists, planners and policymakers alike, among others interested in the topic of homelessness."
-Hannah Keren Lee, Environment & Urbanization
"Jackson’s book challenges us to think more deeply about the extent to which young homeless people’s experiences of the city are understood. This might help to create the places of belonging, rest and future sought by the young homeless people occupying in-between spaces such as Fresh Start."
— Tim Packer, Housing Studies
"Jackson explores the cooption and resistances towards institutional forces that work to shape the lived experiences of marginalised urbanites. Young homeless people are not merely passive, but exercise agency within a complex web of interactions across scales. This book is a vital piece of work that disrupts singular interpretations of space and time, of the urban and of both fixity and mobility. As such it deserves to be read widely."
- Philip Mullen, Durham University, Urban Studies
"This book should be read by anyone who wants to understand how homeless youth navigate their precarious lives, and how local experiences articulatewith global forces. The book represents ethnography at its best, providing an abundantly clear, exquisitely written, and relentlessly critical examination of how the neoliberal enterprise affects some of London’s most vulnerable residents."

Descriere
This ethnographic exploration of contemporary spaces of homelessness takes an expanded view of homeless space, threading together experiences of organizational spaces, routes taken through the city and the occupation of public space. Through engaging with participants' accounts of movement and place, the book argues that young homeless
