Sinopsis

What would it mean for all people to be housed securely and sustainably in neighborhoods of interconnection and belonging? In A Home for All, Laura Stivers helps readers imagine a world where housing is accessible, affordable, and life-giving. Part of the Building a Moral Economy series from Fortress Press, this book equips readers for generative action toward ecological, equitable, and democratic forms of economic life that promote housing justice.

The authors in the series invite us to be morally empowered, not only in seeing and envisioning new ways of being and living, but also by joining the joyful community of people from all faith traditions who are enacting and embracing a world where the Sacred fullness of life can flourish.

This book guides readers into a worldview that treats economies as webs of relationship and, therefore, as moral matters subject to the call of neighbor-love and justice. It focuses on what individuals and communities are doing in response to their anger and lament at housing injustice--how they are resisting unequal neighborhoods, unsustainable sprawl development, and the commodification of housing; how they are making individual lifestyle changes to live more simply; and how they are building bridges with one another to create flourishing communities where people are both housed and at home.
