Home : Social Research: an International Quarterly of the Social Sciences: A Place in the World

The idea of home has a deep resonance for us that is not fully captured by its use as a social and political slogan. This special issue of Social Research compiles papers on the concept of home that were presented at a conference organized at the New School for Social Research. These papers explore the ideology of home and its meaning as a central human idea, as well as the crises engendered by its loss through homelessness and exile and by the experience of loss suffered in alienation.Mack, Arien is the author of 'Home : Social Research: an International Quarterly of the Social Sciences: A Place in the World', published 1991 under ISBN 9781933481296 and ISBN 1933481293.
