Abstract [en]

The aim of this chapter is to analyze the process of home destruction and how home is given meaning and politicized by those experiencing displacement through renovation. The objective here is both to conceptualize the processes of the destruction in the displacement process including the creation and re-creation of home(homemaking), and to understand the role homemaking plays in citizens’ negotiation of their place and position in society, political engagement, and agency. I place the processes of un-homing and homemaking as pivotal for the development of political subjectivity. Political subjectivity is conceptualized as agency based on a subjective and shared multi-scalar understanding of oneself and as part of a collective, a multi-dimensional process characterized by social, political, material, and spatial dimensions. Sweden serves as an example of a post-welfare context and the analysis is built on interviews with tenants facing displacement through renovation, organizing collectively to contest it.
