Abstract
Social inequality operates through the reduction of identity, with individual life stories, current life situations and hopes for the future often collapsed into a single, generally negatively connoted characteristic attributed to the group with whom the individual is identified. If such reductionism is part of the way in which inequalities are reproduced in everyday interactions, then the making of equality may have its source in similarly situated interactions, based on a non-reductionist global approach. In the present text, I look at an experimentation of such a global approach, with a particular emphasis on well-being and the relationship to food. The fivefold definition of well-being proposed is based on a research project on seniors and home-support workers in Montreal, and is applied, in connection with food, to an experimental Housing-First project on homelessness, and in relation to security, sociability, nourishment, freedom and routines and places.
