Abstract
CLOKE P., MILBOURNE P. and WIDDOWFIELD R. (2001) The geographies of homelessness in rural England, Reg. Studies 35,23-37. Relatively little attention has been given to the geographies of homelessness in England, still less to the nature and scale of homelessness in rural areas. In this paper we draw on analyses of unpublished official statistics on local homelessness and a national survey of local authorities to investigate the geographies of homelessness in rural England. In particular, we present findings on three key components of rural homelessness: the changing scale and profile of this homelessness; local authority practices for dealing with homelessness; and the ways in which the scales of homelessness in rural areas may remain undercounted within official homelessness statistics. CLOKE P., MILBOURNE P. et WIDDOWFIELD R. (2001) La geographie des sans-abri dans le rural anglais, Reg. Studies 35, 23-37. On prete relativement peu d'attention a la geographie des sans-abri en Angleterre, encore peu a la nature et au nombre des sans-abri dans le rural. Cet article cherche a puiser dans des analyses des statistiques officielles non publiees a propos du nombre des sans-abri locaux et dans une enquete nationale aupres des autorites locales afin d'examiner la geographie des sans-abri dans le rural anglais. En particulier, on tire des conclusions sur les trois elements cle des sans-abri ruraux.: l'evolution de l'importance et du profil des sans- abri; les mesures prises par les autorites locales en faveur des sans-abri; et la sous-estimation de l'importance du probleme des sans-abri ruraux dans les statistiques officielles. CLOKE P., MILBOURNE P. und WIDDOWFIELD R. (2001) Die Geographie der Obdachlosigkeit in den landlichen Gebieten Englands, Reg. Studies 35, 23-37. Die Geographie der Obdachlosigkeit in England ist relativ wenig Beachtung zuteil geworden, und noch weniger ihrer Beschaffenheit und Umfang in landlichen Gebieten. In diesem Aufsatz stutzen die Autoren sich auf Analysen unveroffentlicher offizieller Statistiken ortlicher Obdachlosigkeit und eine das ganze Land umfassende Umfrage unter Gemeindeverwaltungen um die Geographien der Obdachlosigkeit in landlichen Gebieten Englands zu untersuchen. Besonders dargestellt werden Befunde bezuglich dreier Hauptkomponenten der Obdachsanslosigkeit auf dem Lande: des sich wandelnden Umfangs und Profits dieser Obdachlosigkeit, der Verfahrensweisen der Gemeindeverwaltungen zur Bewaltigung der Obdachlosigkeit und die verschiedenen Weisen, in der Umfang der Obdachlosigkeit in landliche Gebieten in der offiziellen Statistik der Obdachlosigkeit unterreprasentatiert bleiben konnte.
