Living with Precariousness

Precariousness has become a defining experience in contemporary society as an inescapable condition and state of being. <i>Living with Precariousness</i> presents a spectrum of timely case studies that explore precarious existences - at individual collective and structural levels and as manifested through space and the body. These range from the plight of asylum seekers to the tiny house movement as a response to affordable housing crises; from the global impacts of climate change to the daily challenges of living with a chronic illness. This multidisciplinary book illustrates the pervasiveness of precarity but furthermore shows how those entanglements with other agents human or otherwise that put us at risk are also the connections that make living with (and through) precariousness endurable.
