Drawing on 15 years of fieldwork and over 300 interviews, Home SOS argues that the home is central to the violence and gendered contingency of existence in crisis ordinary Cambodia. 



Provides an original book-length study which brings domestic violence and forced eviction into twin view
Offers relational insights between different violences to build an integrated understanding of women’s experiences of home life
Mobilises the crisis ordinary as a critical pedagogy and imaginary through which to understand everyday gendered politics of survival
Positions domestic violence and forced eviction as manifestations of intimate war against women’s homes and bodies located inside and outside of the traditional purview of war
Reaffirms and reprioritises the home as a political entity which is foundational to the concerns of human geography
