NSF提案1702979 -博士论文研究：标题：流浪法在当代无家可归regulationPI的遗产：马修MarrCo-PI：雷纳Rusenko研究审查新的举措在二十一世纪无家可归的监管往往集中在先进的西方环境。他们要么关注当代新自由主义思想的重要性，要么关注政策历史。在过去的十年中，日本和马来西亚政府机构制定了新的警务，庇护所和住房计划，以实现零无家可归。该项目将调查亚洲地区两个首都城市，即日本东京和马来西亚吉隆坡的当代无家可归问题管理。它将研究无家可归的法规是如何植根于每个国家的福利和刑罚制度的历史发展，从而给予关注后/大都市和后/殖民环境。该项目将使用全球历史透镜，为新自由主义治理、无家可归者管理以及帝国和殖民地政治法律文化遗产的跨学科文献提供信息。通过分析亚洲两个不同发展背景下无家可归监管的关键转变，这项调查将促进对特定国家形式及其各自的刑罚和福利基础设施对无家可归管理的影响的理解。此外，该项目还将确定跨境网络在亚洲地区采用、转变和交流与无家可归问题监管有关的全球流动思想和做法方面的影响。这种调查对于理解当代政策制度的独特地方形式以及更广泛的跨境创新和相互关系至关重要，特别是鉴于流浪法律和相关政策网络的全球共同历史。该项目将说明无家可归政策的当前趋势如何利用历史上建立的制度安排及其概念基础，从而推动独特的政策变化和个人街道级体验。该项目包括使用比较历史和人种学的方法来研究从世纪末到现在的两个地点的无家可归者监管的变化。调查员将通过档案研究和访谈确定支撑当代组织的思想和机构的关键历史转变，并通过档案民族志和民族志实地考察追踪政策的街道影响。该项目以不同发展状况的亚洲城市为重点，试图回答有关全球和地方无家可归者管理轨迹的历史连续性和中断的问题。

NSF Proposal 1702979 - Doctoral Dissertation Research: Title: The Legacies of Vagrancy Law in Contemporary Homelessness RegulationPI: Matthew MarrCo-PI: Rayna RusenkoStudies examining new initiatives in twenty-first century regulation of homelessness tend to center on advanced Western contexts. They focus on either the significance of contemporary neoliberal ideas or on policy histories. Over the last decade, Japanese and Malaysian government agencies have enacted new policing, shelter, and housing initiatives to achieve zero homelessness. This project will investigate contemporary homelessness regulation in two capital cities in the Asian region;namely, Tokyo, Japan, and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It will examine how homelessness regulations are rooted in the historical development of each nation's welfare and penal systems, thereby giving attention to post/metropolitan and post/colonial contexts. The project will use a global historical lens to inform interdisciplinary literature on neoliberal governance, homelessness regulation, and legacies of imperial and colonial politico-legal cultures. By analyzing key shifts in homelessness regulation across two distinct developmental contexts in Asia, this investigation will advance understanding of the influences of particular state forms and their respective penal and welfare infrastructures with regard to homelessness management. In addition, the project will identify the influences of cross-border networks in the adoption, transformation, and exchange of globally-mobile ideas and practices relating to homelessness regulation in the Asian region. Such investigation is critical for understanding the distinct local forms of contemporary policy regimes, as well as broader cross-border innovations and inter-relations, particularly in light of shared global histories of vagrancy laws and related policy networks.This project will illustrate how current trends in homelessness policy tap into historically-established institutional arrangements and their ideational underpinnings, thereby driving unique policy variations and individual street-level experiences. This project includes the use of comparative historical and ethnographic methods to examine shifts in homelessness regulation in two sites from the late-nineteenth century to the present. The investigator will identify key historical shifts in ideas and institutions underpinning contemporary organization through archival research and interviews, and trace street-level impacts of policy through archival ethnography and ethnographic fieldwork. This project, by its focus on Asian cities of varied developmental statuses, seeks to answer questions regarding historical continuities and breaks in global and local trajectories of homelessness regulation.
