{"product_id":"9781920901745","title":"Living on the Streets in Japan","description":"Homelessness has been recognized as a serious problem in Japan since the 1990s, but the dominant model of a \"homeless person\" has been that of an unemployed male labourer - a model that has largely excluded women, who experience homelessness in different forms. This study gives the homeless women of Japan a voice at last.  Based on extensive fieldwork, the author paints a vivid picture of the unique experiences of homeless women living in a diverse range of environments. By introducing a gender perspective to the analytic framework and challenging the conception of the homeless individual as a rational, autonomous subject, the author invites a critical reconsideration of homeless studies and of public policy.","brand":"Satomi Maruyama","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47677411164478,"sku":"9781920901745","price":923.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/products\/9781920901745.jpg?v=1707648975","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9781920901745","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
