Through the lens of the home, which she argues is ‘intimately connected, rather than sealed off’ from the impacts of political processes (p. 8), this book connects the seemingly disparate episodes of forced eviction and domestic violence.’\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCourtney Work, National Chengchi University (\u003ci\u003eSingapore Journal of Tropical Geography\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e‘…the book accomplishes a theoretically rich yet empirically grounded account of domestic violence and forced eviction as interrelated oppressions and brutalisations of domestic life.

Based on over 300 interviews and conducted over 15 years, this book focuses on women's experiences of survival-work in (un)eventful situations of domestic violence and forced eviction. Charting the journey of Cambodia's first-ever domestic violence law, alongside women's housing activism against forced eviction, \u003ci\u003eHome SOS\u003c\/i\u003e explores how the political economy of the country has conspired to limit – and in some cases quash – the transformative potential that each might hold. Together, domestic violence, and forced eviction are shown to be interrelated oppressions and brutalisations of domestic life that gravitate and retrain multiple subfields of geography on to the home sphere as a public-private hybrid worthy of energised study.   \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e‘I read \u003ci\u003eHome SOS\u003c\/i\u003e while wearing a brand name pullover made by Cambodian women garment factory workers.
