Co-opting the ‘public’ in public health: homelessness and the specious logic of discretionary displacement in a mid-sized US city by Lesley Jo Weaver, Claire W. Herbert, Dylan J. Podrabsky, Mackenzie L. Ní Flainn

“…By identifying coercive patterns in public health history and connecting them with the regulation of unsheltered homelessness, this analysis reveals an all-too-familiar picture, where those with power take coercive action upon those with less power instead of employing preventative or structural interventions that could meaningfully address homelessness.…”
