| Summary: |
"Home SOS argues that the home is central to the violence and gendered contingency of existence in crisis ordinary Cambodia. Based on over 300 interviews and conducted over 15 years, this book focuses on women's experiences of survival-work in (un)eventful situations of domestic violence and forced eviction. Charting the journey of Cambodia's first-ever domestic violence law, alongside women's housing activism against forced eviction, Home SOS explores how the political economy of the country has conspired to limit - and in some cases quash - the transformative potential that each might hold. Together, domestic violence and forced eviction are shown to be interrelated oppressions and brutalisations of domestic life that gravitate and retrain multiple subfields of geography on to the home sphere as a public-private hybrid worthy of energised study"-- |
