Placeless: Homelessness in the New Gilded Age presents an alternative and innovative, wide-angle view of homelessness and displacement in New York and elsewhere.A tour of the geography of homelessness in New York City, where some 100,000 people a night sleep in the city's shelter system, Markee visits certain city landmarks where homeless New Yorkers struggle to survive:- armories once built to quarter militias who put down worker uprisings - a train tunnel underneath Riverside Park- a grim intake center where infants, children, and families were forced to sleep on office floors- a former psychiatric wing of Bellevue Hospital now sheltering hundreds of homeless men each night- a Manhattan park surrounded by luxury condos where the police routinely harassed homeless street-dwellersBlending historical analysis, urban theory, and the latest policy research, Markee considers homelessness in America as a tragic yet inevitable consequence of economic shifts inaugurated in the Reagan era, worsening inequality and housing affordability, systemic racism, and neoliberal government policies.At a moment where tabloids and politicians use homelessness as an excuse to whip up fear, Placeless is a powerful and moving account of a social problem whose solution is entirely possible.…
