This article focuses on evictability and the eviction of the residents of one block of flats in a small southern Slovakian town. Most of the building’s inhabitants are Roma, but the problem of cultural racism is interconnected with political, economic, legal, and even research and activist issues. The article is based on socially committed ethnographic research and the perspective of critical human geography. The theoretical framework is informed by the geographies of eviction, which grasp evictions as a becoming affective process. In this approach the focus is on not just the structural and other causes of eviction and its negative consequences but also and above all on the eviction that is taking place in the present and that temporally goes beyond the act of displacement – it signifies the lasting effect of sovereign power exercised through threats of eviction and ‘home unmaking’ brought about by the withholding of vital infrastructure. The analysis distinguishes four becoming phases. The first one shows how tenants’ precarity is made when their stigmatisation as Roma intersects with the neoliberal imperatives of individual responsibility asserted by the town. In the second phase, the eviction begins, giving rise to affects of confusion, desperation, and fear. The third phase brings resistance to the arbitrary sovereign power of the town authorities. In the fourth phase the resistance sees some successes, but the town’s sovereign power at the same time expands its spatiality. The state of the eviction here is not final and it can still develop in different ways.

Undoubtedly, one of the elements posing a threat to social security is the risk of losing the roof over one’s head, with unemployment in an extreme case, as well as being in possession of a flat that fails to meet the essential requirements. The paper will address the issue of eviction and the “Mieszkanie plus” (Flat plus) government housing programme, which is intended to support individuals who cannot afford to purchase their own flat. This paper aims to examine this initiative and indicate its potential influence on the process of acquiring flats by Polish citizens. It is also worthwhile to stress another significant aspect in the context of housing, namely the issue of structural safety of the particular rooms or buildings. Therefore, the threats to social security are associated not only with the mere possession of a flat but also with the manner in which it is used, which may result in a construction disaster.

Powieść "Cholonek, czyli dobry Pan Bóg z gliny" Janoscha to przykład niemieckiej tzw. literatury wypędzonych. Jej akcja toczy się na Górnym Śląsku, w niemieckiej osadzie Poremba – dzielnicy dawnego Hindenburga (obecnie Zabrza) – przy niemiecko-polskiej granicy. Jest kultową powieścią tego nurtu. Rozgrywa się od schyłku Republiki Weimarskiej, poprzez dojście Hitlera do władzy, lata nazizmu, okres II wojny światowej aż do wkroczenia na ten teren armii sowieckiej. Ukazuje mistrzowsko – w sposób plastyczny i barwny – skomplikowane losy szeroko pojmowanej rodziny Świętków. Powieść, poza walorami artystycznymi, jest szczególnego rodzaju zapisem o charakterze historycznym, etnograficznym, nawet antropologicznym.

"The Cholonek, or good Lord God made of clay" by Janosch is an example of the so-called German eviction literature literature. The story takes place in the Upper Silesia, in the German village of Poremba – a district of the former city of Hindenburg (presently Zabrze), by the Polish-German border. The novel belongs to the most important in that genre. It takes place at the end of the Weimar Republic, through Hitler’s coming to power, the Nazi years, World War 2 until the incoming of the Soviet Army. It masterfully portrays the complicated fate of the Świętek family. Apart from literary values, the novel is a specific kind of historical, anthropological and ethnographical record.
