‘The essays in this volume elaborate the many ways in which families and individuals globally are burdened by exposure to conditions that endanger their existence and emotional wellbeing. Financial vulnerabilities, especially, can be a major source of deep trauma. Admirably the authors in Beyond Precarity seek to chart a better world where people can experience security, fulfillment and joy, rather than live under the persistent threat of pain and injury.’
