Publisher Synopsis
"Thanks to its nuanced and multi-layered take on the geographical dimensions of employment, home, land and food provision in late capitalism, this monograph will become essential reading for scholars in the domains of post-socialist area studies, geography, economics, anthropology and sociology, in addition to social, urban and economic development policy practitioners." (Royal Geographical Society, 2012) "This book makes a valuable contribution to the theorization of neoliberalization by extending it to the realm of the everyday household economy. It is grounded in rich empirical research in working class neighbourhoods in Bratislava and Krakow and argues that households mitigate and tolerate the pernicious social costs of neoliberal reform to achieve social reproduction." (Yahoo Finance, 2 November 2010) Read more...
