Deregulation, revenge evictions, corruption, and day-to-day instability: these are realities becoming ever more familiar for those of us who rent our homes or apartments. At the same time, house prices are skyrocketing and the promise of homeownership is now an impossible dream for many. This is the rent-trap, an inescapable consequence of market-induced inequality. Samir Jeraj and Rosie Walker offer the first in-depth case study of the private rental sector in the United Kingdom, exploring the rent-trap injustices in a first-world economy and exposing the powers that conspire to oppose regulation. A quarter of British MPs are landlords; rent strike is almost impossible; and sudden evictions are growing. Nevertheless, drawing on inspiration from movements in the United Kingdom, continental Europe, and elsewhere, The Rent Trap shows how people are starting to fight back against the financial burdens, health risks, and vicious behavior of landlords, working to create a world of fairer, safer housing for all--lessons that extend well beyond the borders of the UK.

Based on field work in Michigan in 1989 and 1990, explores how street-level welfare workers and welfare recipients actively construct their world and its meanings in relation to the social and cultural constraints to which they are subject. The point is to clarify the conditions that encourage the recognition of commonality and those that encourage difference, in order to find ways of promoting a sense of co-membership in the system.
