In this ethnographic study, Johannes Lenhard observes the daily practices, routines and techniques of people who are sleeping rough on the streets of Paris. The book focusses on their survival practises, their short-term desires and hopes, how they earn money through begging, how they choose the best place to sleep at night and what role drugs and alcohol play in their lives. The book also follows people through different institutional settings, including a homeless day centre, a needle exchange, a centre for people with alcohol problems and a homeless shelter.

Cet ouvrage documente des situations où l'intervention sociale semble impossible. L'accent est mis sur l'intraitabilité, caractéristique liée aux spécificités du public mais également à la temporalité de l'intervention, pleinement inscrite dans l'ici et maintenant. Les exemples exposés ici – fruit d'une enquête ethnographique dans un Centre d'Hébergement et de Réinsertion Sociale – ne participent pas d'une politique de réduction des risques à l'usage de substances mais d'une contenance des risques. Ce travail expose une série de situations qui renseignent cette intraitabilité et renvoie également au travail conduit dans le cadre d'un suivi du Revenu Minimum d'Activité (RMA), à l'accompagnement des personnes en situation de handicap lourd, des personnes en fin de vie ou bien des adolescents dits difficiles. Il s'agit d'une invitation à penser les interventions empêchées, une problématique transversale et permanente, constitutive des métiers du social.
Ce se întâmplă când o familie se mută într-o casă nouă? Dar atunci când își pierde locuința? Ce semnificație au casele moștenite? Dar diferitele obiecte de decor? Atașand casa familiei care o locuiește, autorul obține o perspectivă psihologică mult mai bogată, în care teritoriul intimității familiale este modelat de forțele inconștiente care se acumulează în locul în care trăim, oglindind legăturile dintre membrii familiei. Inspirându-se din clinică şi din cercetare, prin observarea modului în care trăiesc familiile în timpul consultațiilor la domiciliu, şi prin ascultarea discursurilor în terapie, autorul ne oferă accesul la dimensiunile profunde ale ...
