About This Book

The Routledge Handbook of Homelessness brings together many of the world's leading scholars in the field to provide a cutting-edge overview of classic and current research and future trends in the subject.

Comprising 41 chapters and divided into four sections, the handbook includes



  • A comprehensive introduction to homelessness, referring to history, culture, causation and definitions.



  • Contemporary and historical debates around homelessness in different academic disciplines.



  • Homelessness relating to gender, sexuality, youth, families, migration, rurality, veterans and health.



  • A range of country-specific studies to illustrate the ways in which homelessness is researched and understood around the world.



  • Methods of engagement and modes of analysis.

With contributors from around the world and editors from the Centre of Housing Policy at the University of York, this handbook provides a groundbreaking and authoritative guide to theory, method and the primary interdisciplinary debates of today on homelessness. It will be essential reading for students, academics and professionals across the disciplines of sociology, human geography, public policy, housing policy, social policy, social work, economics and criminology.
