Abstract A decade of austerity and cuts to local services have had severe impacts on coastal towns in England, resulting in high levels of inequality and precarious employment prospects for many residents, including young men growing up in working class families. Forms of care typically provided by the family and the state are are becoming unavailable, and access to secure employment has become difficult, especially for men with few educational qualifications, skills or work experience in places where work in seasonal. In this article we explore the effects of austerity and precariousness on the daily lives of 30 young men living in coastal towns, focusing on the ways they have come to care for each other. We build on feminist efforts to ‘trouble’ care, highlighting unexpected caring practices, as well as the conflicts that shape barriers to care and the ways care itself may play out in careless ways, shaped by the austere contexts of its enactment. We pay attention to the significance of place and the everyday spaces in which care is practiced, as well as the ways in which friendship networks are paradoxically both caring and careless.

不稳定的生活,不稳定的护理:英格兰三个沿海城镇的年轻人护理实践

摘要 十年的紧缩政策和削减当地服务对英格兰的沿海城镇产生了严重影响,导致许多居民(包括在工人阶级家庭长大的年轻人)的高度不平等和不稳定的就业前景。通常由家庭和国家提供的护理形式正在变得不可用,获得稳定的就业变得困难,特别是对于在季节性工作的地方几乎没有教育资格、技能或工作经验的男性而言。在这篇文章中,我们探讨了生活在沿海城镇的 30 名年轻人的日常生活紧缩和不稳定的影响,重点关注他们相互关心的方式。我们建立在女权主义努力“麻烦”护理的基础上,突出意外的护理实践,以及形成护理障碍的冲突和护理本身的方式可能会以粗心大意的方式发挥作用,由其制定的严峻背景所塑造。我们关注场所和日常空间的重要性,以及关怀和粗心的友谊网络的方式。
