Common Sense as Political Struggle: Asserting the Right to Home Following the Grenfell Tower Fire

Leaney, Sarah

Sociological research online, 12/2022, Volume: 27, Issue: 4

Journal Article

The Grenfell Tower fire is a tragic manifestation of the brutality of the neoliberal conditionality of home. The systematic devaluing of the lives of residents in the social housing block is the result of stigmatisation-fuelled neglect. This article explores the ideological formation of the ‘ideals’ of home ownership, asserting a right to home as a means to resist the ‘unequal distribution of precarity’ that defines neoliberal formations of home.
