Usla, elända och arma - samhällets utsatta under 700 år

Rate this book
Baksidetext:

"Tattare, tiggare, vansinniga och löskefolk - utsatta människor har funnits i alla tider. Många har fötts in i fattigdom och utanförskap, andra har drabbats av olyckor under livets gång som gjort att tillvaron kantrat. En del har lyckats resa sig, andra har dukat under.

I femton texter presenteras en annorlunda typ av historia med ett uttalat underifrånperspektiv. Författarna är forskare som på olika sätt brottats med dessa frågor i sitt arbete. Tillsammans ger de en röst åt människor som sällan kommit till tals, vare sig i de historiska källorna eller i dagens samhällsdebatt."

DNF at 50 %. The topic is very interesting, about the lesser fortune people in swedish society. About their life and how it was to life outside of society. Women pregnant with out being married and what happened to their children to name a few. All very interesting. However I had a difficult time to read the book, it didn't have the flow as some others and I just couldn't pick up all the fact. Perhaps a me thing and maybe I'll should try again someday but for now illa put it down.
