Introduction
Housing and the Post-Welfare Patchwork of Shadow Care Infrastructures
How care infrastructures support distance and connection in community welfare organisations
Precarity Before and During the Pandemic
There is mounting evidence of increased international student financial and work precarity over the last decade in Australia. Yet, there has been a little scholarly analysis of which students are most affected by precarity and its sources. Drawing on two surveys of international students in Australia's two largest cities, conducted before and during the pandemic, we investigate the financial and work vulnerabilities of international students. We …
Crowded house
This article draws on two surveys of international students in Sydney and Melbourne, undertaken in 2019 and during the 2020 COVID-19 lockdowns. Using the concept of bounded agency, we identify how the challenges of living in one of the world’s most expensive rental housing markets impact students’ perceptions of their academic attainment. We find housing insecurity, unaffordability and condition, amplified by financial stress, contribute signific…
International students struggling in the private rental sector in Australia prior to and during the pandemic
International students have emerged as a major cohort within Australia’s post-secondary education sector. Despite contributing substantially to the economy and community, they are expected to make their own way in Australia’s expensive private rental market. Drawing on two surveys—one conducted prior to Covid-19 and one fielded during the pandemic—as well as forty semi-structured in-depth interviews, the article examines strategies adopted by stu…
International students on the edge
International students are an important global cohort of 'noncitizens' whose experiences are central concerns for urban sociologists and migration scholars. Drawing on survey fieldwork conducted among international students in the private rental sector in Sydney and Melbourne during 2019, this article provides new knowledge about the hardships experienced by international students who report financial stress. Using a modified scale developed by t…
Loneliness within the Home among International Students in the Private Rental Sector in Sydney and Melbourne
We draw on 45 in-depth interviews and a large-scale survey we conducted, to examine loneliness among international students in Sydney and Melbourne within their accommodation. We discuss three features which increase the possibility of loneliness – the physical layout and use of the space; the social composition of fellow tenants, and power differentials between tenants. The interviews indicated that the lack of a congenial common area, having to…
Explaining Government Policy Inaction on International Student Housing in Australia
Shadow care infrastructures
Economic restructuring and welfare reform are driving new forms of urban poverty in the global north. Shadow care infrastructures is a new frame for conceptualising the complex and interconnected practices through which marginalised people seek survival in this context. It remaps welfare landscapes across a continuum that includes formal and informal, established and improvised practice, the not-for-profit sector, informal community networks and …
More Than Making Do
The narrowing eligibility and increasing conditionality of social security payments in Anglophone liberal democracies like Australia has been accompanied by growing attention to the ways benefit recipients navigate the personal and practical challenges of life amid welfare reforms. This article reorients the study of getting by on welfare benefits to focus on the material and affective investment in making life liveable. I argue that the generati…
Sleep Quality and Physical Activity as Predictors of Mental Wellbeing Variance in Older Adults during Covid-19 Lockdown
COVID-19 lockdown deleteriously affected physical activity and sleep patterns. Furthermore, change in the total PSQI score and total physical activity energy expenditure were significant predictors for the decrease in mental wellbeing
Negotiating vulnerability
This article addresses the prominence of 'vulnerability' as a way of making sense of disadvantage and suffering in both social policy and social science. It examines the interplay of vulnerability as a material phenomenon and cultural script by foregrounding the experiences of the most marginal benefit claimants in Australia's residual social security system. The article questions whether the everyday disruptions and challenges that unsettle yet …
Facteurs associés à l’exposition élevée aux médicaments psychotropes identifiés lors d’une étude épidémiologique montréalaise
L’article examine les associations entre l’exposition élevée aux médicaments psychotropes, la présence d’un diagnostic de trouble mental et les caractéristiques sociodémographiques chez la population adulte. Un questionnaire a été passé par entrevue auprès de 2433 personnes de 15 ans et plus dans le cadre de l’enquête ZEPSOM (zone épidémiologique du sud-ouest de Montréal). Les déterminants de leur consommation de psychotropes ont fait l’objet d’a…
