Homelessness remains a major social policy issue around the world. This entry starts by examining different techniques researchers use to count the homeless.

None…
Coercive confinement in the Republic of Ireland
In Ireland until recently, a range of institutions other than prisons was utilized to confine those deemed to be deviant. It seems clear that rather than becoming more punitive (if this is estimated by the number of individuals coercively confined) the country has become considerably less so over the past 50 years. In 1951, despite high emigration providing a safety valve, more than 1 percent of the population was behind closed doors in prisons, …
