Sinossi

Housing Stability Indicators explores the critical issue of housing inequality, specifically focusing on the disproportionate rates of housing instability and homelessness experienced by LGBTQ individuals. It argues that systemic discrimination, embedded within housing policies and practices, is a primary driver of these disparities, rather than individual circumstances. The book highlights the intersectionality of identities, recognizing that race, class, and other factors compound housing challenges for LGBTQ individuals. Understanding the historical context of discriminatory housing practices, including those once legal, is essential to grasp the present-day obstacles. The book presents its findings through a multi-faceted approach, combining quantitative data from national surveys with qualitative insights from interviews and focus groups. It examines barriers to accessing shelter, such as discrimination from service providers and a lack of affirming spaces. Ultimately, the book proposes evidence-based policy recommendations aimed at promoting equity and inclusion, offering practical insights for policymakers, housing advocates, and social workers. 

 
The book progresses across three sections, first establishing a framework for understanding LGBTQ identities and disparities, then examining specific barriers to accessing shelter, and finally analyzing current housing policies and suggesting strategies for change. It connects to fields such as urban sociology, public policy, and LGBTQ studies, emphasizing the multifaceted nature of housing inequality and the urgent need for inclusive housing policy.

Slavs and the Slave Trade The:...

Editors Charles River

some historians have aligned the term Slav as deriving from descriptions of slaves: “The word “slave” and its cognates in most modern European languages is itself derived from “sclavus,” meaning “slav,” the ethnic name for the inhabitants of this region.” Some historians have outlined how they believe that Slavic slaves were used intensively in the ninth and tenth centuries and acted as a driver of Western European economic growth and allowed them to “emerge from the Dark Ages.” It is only fair to note that this assertion has been disputed. Separately, other scholars have asserted that Constantinople’s rapid rise to become one of Europe’s largest cities was fueled by a large supply of Slavic slaves. 
	These trans-European routes diminished somewhat from the thirteenth century but demonstrated how common slave trading was in the region during these centuries. The majority of the people would have been kidnapped from Southeast Europe, as well as the Eurasian and Caucasus regions. Today, that encompasses Russia, Ukraine, Georgia, the Baltic states, Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, and the states of the former Yugoslavia. Crucially, an important component of Slavic identity was the Christian faith, in particular Orthodox Christianity.  
	In the medieval period, a slave trading network became more entrenched, transporting people from Slavic lands in Eastern Europe to the Mediterranean and beyond. The growing schism between the Catholic and Orthodox versions of Christianity made Orthodox Christians targets of the former’s slave traders. As a result, Slavic slaves were captured and taken to parts of Christian Spain, including Aragon and Valencia, in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries.
