[S3.5E06] Profiting From The Homeless
Cities After… with Prof. Miguel Robles-Durán. A radical exploration into the capitalist contradictions of our urban world, and the many anti-capitalist futures to come.
The number of people experiencing homelessness has been increasing dramatically worldwide. This crisis has worsened in the past decade due to uncontrolled predatory real estate speculation, the harmful privatization of social housing, high levels of inequality, a severe shortage of affordable homes, and the lack of legal and economic support for social spending on basic human needs. Neoliberal capitalism is at the core of this problem. In this episode, Prof. Robles-Durán examines the systemic failure of governments, private-public partnerships, and non-profit organizations in addressing homelessness. This combination has given rise to an exploitative homeless industry that has profited from creating and perpetuating this social misfortune for decades.
