Summary:
"In
Resisting
Eviction
, Andrew Crosby investigates the social relations of rule and resistance in the processes of gentrification,
eviction
, and the
financialization
of
rental
housing
. Troubling discourses of urban liveability, revitalization, and improvement, Crosby examines the deliberate destruction of home --
domicide
-- at a key site of redevelopment in the City of Ottawa, on unceded Algonquin homelands. Heron Gate is a large
rental
neighbourhood owned by one real estate investment firm. Around 800 people--predominantly lower-income, racialized households--have been evicted and displaced from the neighbourhood since 2016, leading to the emergence of the Herongate Tenant Coalition to fight the evictions and confront the landlord-developer. This case study is meticulously documented through political activist ethnography, making this book a brilliant example of ethical engagement and methodological integrity."--Publisher.
