Beskrivning

A century after the state's foundation, Ireland faces an acute homelessness crisis with families and children increasingly affected. This book uncovers how decades of housing policy, financial decisions and social factors have shaped today’s housing insecurity. It is the first to take a historical approach, tracing the roots of homelessness back to key policy decisions taken over the past century. By understanding how we got here, it offers crucial insights into breaking the cycle. Essential reading for policy makers, scholars and anyone concerned about Ireland’s housing future, with lessons for other jurisdictions, this book reveals why solving homelessness requires rethinking how we build and fund housing.

Recensioner i media

'"Understanding Homelessness in Ireland Since Independence" ends on a surprisingly positive note, with the authors insisting that a "genuine collaboration" between key State agencies can wipe it out by 2036. It's essential reading for anyone with a role to play in breaking this vicious cycle.' The Irish Times
