Description
Drawing on recent academic studies in North America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand, this book is the first international text on homelessness in rural areas. Consisting of fifteen specially commissioned chapters, International Perspectives on Rural Homelessness provides comparative material on the cultural, political and policy contexts of rural homelessness, examining the nature and scale of the issue and the complex local geographies of rural homelessness.

Reviews"[The] strength and value of this collection is the detailed analyses provided and the ample opportunity they provide to the reader to move beyond the familiarity of their own country to reconsider rural homelessness from profoundly different perspectives." - Housing Studies
