The book is an experimental collective intellectual project departing from conventional approaches to scarcity solely as a resource-based economic or demographic concept. Boldly the book looks at the ways in which disadvantaged social groups navigate their lives through scarcity and how these circumstances are endured interpreted accepted or challenged. In a thought-provoking turn the book makes a novel contribution to minority studies by engaging with scarcity not only concerning resources but also emotion memory and affect. In analysing scarcity as a multidimensional analytical framework and interrogating it from manifold angles the book unpacks uncharted ramifications of debates around scarcity and opens new lines of enquiry.
