Theses on homelessness, public space, and urban resistance. 330 $aDuring the late 1980s and early 1990s the city of San Francisco waged a war against the homeless. Over 1,000 arrests and citations where handed out by the police to activists for simply distributing free food in public parks. Why would a liberal city arrest activists helping the homeless? In exploring this question, the book treats the conflict between the city and activists as a unique opportunity to examine the contested nature of homelessness and public space while developing an anarchist alternative to liberal urban politics that is rooted in mutual aid, solidarity, and anti-capitalism. In addition to exploring theoretical and political issues related to gentrification, broken-windows policing, and anti-homeless laws, this book provides activists, students and scholars, examples of how anarchist homeless activists in San Francisco resisted these processes. 410 0$aContemporary anarchist studies (Manchester, England) 606 $aHomelessness$zCalifornia$zSan Francisco 606 $aHomeless persons$xGovernment policy 606 $aFood relief$zCalifornia$zSan Francisco 607 $aSan Francisco (Calif.)$xSocial conditions 610 $aZero hunger. 610 $aactivism. 610 $aanarchism. 610 $afood politics. 610 $agentrification. 610 $ahomelessness. 610 $apolitical theory. 610 $asocial movements. 610 $asquatting. 610 $aurban politics. 615 0$aHomelessness 615 0$aHomeless persons$xGovernment policy. 615 0$aFood relief 676 $a362.59097946109045 700 $aParson$b Sean$01666747 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819770603321 996 $aCooking up a revolution$94026169 997 $aUNINA
