Editor's Note:
Turun köyhät kasvot kertoo urbaanista köyhyydestä ja osattomuudesta Turun palon jälkeisinä vuosikymmeninä ja 2000-luvun laman jälkeisenä julkisen sektorin pysyvän niukkuuden ja lapsuuden eriarvoistumisen aikana.Kirjoittajat pohtivat köyhyyden kokemusta ja sen ylisukupolvisia siirtymiä erityisesti naisten ja lasten elämänpiireissä, joissa on edelleen paljon tutkimatonta sekä historia- että sosiaalitieteissä.Lukija saa uutta tietoa Turun Luostarinmäellä asuneista lapsiperheistä, köyhien lasten kummeista ja koulunkäynnistä, varattomien kätilöpalveluista, alkoholiin liittyvistä rikkeistä ja kaupungin jälleenrakennuksesta 1830- ja 1840-luvulla. Nyt idyllinen, jopa pittoreski Luostarinmäen museokortteli oli 1800-luvulla ennen kaikkea köyhien ja huono-osaisten asuinalue. Kirjassa paneudutaan myös 2000-luvun turkulaisten lasten ja nuorten kokemuksiin köyhyydestä ja nykyhetken varsinaissuomalaisten aikuisten kokemuksiin huono-osaisuuden ylisukupolvisuudesta.Kokonaisuutena teos osoittaa, miten köyhyys rajoittaa ihmisten sosiaalista osallisuutta ajasta ja yhteiskunnallisesta kontekstista riippumatta.Kirjan monipuolinen, taulukoista, kartoista, valokuvista ja historiallisista visualisoinneista koostuva kuvitus johdattaa lukijoita hahmottamaan huono-osaisten ja köyhien kokemuksia uudella tavalla.
