[csaa-forum] CFP: New Perspectives in Homelessness Research

[John Gunders]

New Perspectives in Homelessness Research: An Interdisciplinary Workshop.
Date: 15th July.
Venue: University of Melbourne

Recent contributions from cultural studies, human geography, history, sociology, and critical theory indicate that there is a need to open new interdisciplinary directions in the field of homelessness research.

This workshop provides an opportunity to share new research directions and perspectives on understanding, representing, and theorising homelessness. Welcoming participants from across disciplines, this workshop brings together scholars working to understand the complex and multifaceted phenomenon of homelessness: its relationship to wider social processes; the changing nature and meaning of homelessness over time; the place that "the homeless" occupy in the way that modern societies imagine themselves; as well as the lived subjectivities of those who experience homelessness.

The convenors welcome contributions contributing to theoretical development in the field of homelessness research.
