Abstract:
This research note presents preliminary findings from a longitudinal studyon the lives of families in poverty. In recent years, a poverty-conscious perspectiveseeks to make the voices of those who experience poverty heard and so to learnfrom their own life experiences. Expanding this perspective, our research is basedon a feminist discourse analysis of eight women’s self-documentation diaries during the first lockdown. Our team, made up of researchers and women political activistswho themselves experience poverty, sought to describe and understand the mundanerealities — both material and emotional — of children, women and families inpoverty during and after lockdown. These families, who are left behind also inroutine, have just a little room for maneuver in adapting to the new emergency.Thus, in stark contrast to the emotional structure that characterized the middle classduring the lockdown, ranging between joy and estrangement in the face of the forcedslowdown and self and family convergence, we found that for families in povertythe pandemic has been the continuation of their habitual unprotected life. This barereality, characterized by the intensification of the “crisis ordinariness” of living inpoverty, is described and articulated here by the women themselves
