DESCRIPTION:This paper will examine recent responses to rough sleeping and
  'problematic street culture' (e.g. begging and street drinking) in Englan
 d. It will assess the extent to which the increasing use of enforcement an
 d conditionality in interventions are indicative of a \n'revanchist expuls
 ion' of the deviant Other and/or an expression of 'coercive care' for the 
 vulnerable Other. It will conclude that\, whilst the recent developments a
 ppear\, at first glance\, to be symptomatic of revanchist sanitisation of 
 public space\, closer examination reveals that the situation is actually m
 uch more complex than a revanchist reading of the situation might suggest\
 , and perhaps not as devoid of compassion.\n
