Produktbeschreibung

In this ethnographic study, Johannes Lenhard observes the daily practices, routines and techniques of people who are sleeping rough on the streets of Paris. The book focusses on their survival practises, their short-term desires and hopes, how they earn money through begging, how they choose the best place to sleep at night and what role drugs and alcohol play in their lives. The book also follows people through different institutional settings, including a homeless day centre, a needle exchange, a centre for people with alcohol problems and a homeless shelter.

When we think about how to sum up identity, we most likely think about such markers as nationality, religion, sexuality or skin colour. But how fitting are these labels to actually identify us? In his thought-provoking and well-argued book, Appiah sets out to demolish most of these identifiers, arguing that most people are much more diverse and can often lay claim to several or contradicting labels. Most of them date back to colonial times and may have lived out their usefulness ages ago. Drawing on history and sociology and often taking himself as an example, Appiah makes a strong and enlightening case for coming up with better terms in order to identify multi-faceted humanity.
