-the social and politicial economic policies,

-the broader structures at both the local, the national and the global .level

-the cultural values and social constructions of 'homelessness' as a public issue

Because of women's especial 'at risk' status in society the burst of gender analyses in the social policy field since the 1970-80s has been an important development, especially in Europe and in Australia and New Zealand. thus, today, the conflict approaches now tend to draw these several strands, class,gender, ethnicity, citizenship status together to disentangle the web of issues that entrap people into homelessness.

ps confusingly in Australia we have two Peter Saunders each taking opposite positions: one whose focus is on analysing 'the poor' and, the other Peter Saunders, who is influenced more by conflict theory in analysing the broader public issues that put people at risk of being 'the poor' and 'the homeless' .(ref 2)
