Rebranding Precarity by Ella Harris
Explores how pop-up culture has entrenched precarity in London by normalizing and glamorizing crisis conditions in the aftermath of the 2008 crash.
An important contribution to the discussion on how precarity is shifting from exception to norm, and how cities are transforming in a period after the financial crisis* Ben Anderson, Durham University *
This is an important book offering a much needed critical engagement with the deployment of pop-up and other temporary strategies as a glamourous mask distracting us from the realities of the new normal of precarious lives and communities. * Susan Luckman, University of South Australia *
