Abstract
[The introductory chapter introduces the key issues covered in the book. What is argued is that the displacement of the close to 600 public housing tenants in Millers Point and the Sirius apartment building and the sell-off of the housing, was a tragic episode in Sydney’s history and for many tenants has been a traumatic experience. Besides the impacts on individuals, I contend that the removal was an act of communicide, which I define as the destruction of a place-based community as a result of government policy. In addition, the chapter discusses the setting, gives a profile of Millers Point and Sirius at the time of the displacement announcement and then again in December 2017.]
