Engaging systematically with severe forms of poverty in Europe, this important book stimulates academic, public and policy debate by shedding light on aspects of deprivation and exclusion of people in absolute poverty in affluent societies. It investigates different policy and civic responses to extreme poverty, ranging from food donations to penalisation and social cleansing of highly visible poor and how it is related to concerns of ethics, justice and human dignity.
