''I Think Home is More than a Building'': Young Home(less) People on the Cusp of Home, Self and Something Else

Abstract

This paper explores research undertaken with young home(less) people in Sydney in which I specifically pursue ideas of home and belonging in the inner city. In a context in which young home(less) people are seen to 'lack' both identity and place, the responses of young people indicate the fragility and importance of relations of space and self. © 2002 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
