Faith MacNeil Taylor

Precarious Intimacies (eBook, ePUB)

Generation, Rent and Reproducing Relationships in London

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In a time of increasing social and economic inequality, this book illustrates the precarity experienced by millennials facing both rising rents and wage stagnation. Featuring the voices of those with lived experience of precarity in north-east London, MacNeil Taylor focuses on intimacy, reproduction and emotional labour. The book widens readers' understanding of a middle-class 'generation rent' beyond those locked out of anticipated home ownership by considering both social and private renters. Situated in a feminist and queer theoretical framework, the book reveals the crucial role of British policy-making on housing, welfare, and immigration in exacerbating inter- and intra-generational inequality.
