Care, Crisis and Activism
The Politics of Everyday Life
«“Jupp skilfully connects micro-, meso- and macro-levels through her investigation of activists’ involvement in various forms of organising (not necessarily organisations) in a welfare state shaped by austerity. Her nuanced analysis addresses the affordances and ambivalences of community activism.” The Sociological Review»
