Golden Arches, Hidden Lives: The Untold Story of McRefugees is a powerful and eye-opening exploration of the hidden lives of McRefugees-homeless and working-poor individuals who seek shelter in 24-hour McDonald's restaurants. From Hong Kong's coffin homes and Tokyo's net café refugees to the global rise of urban homelessness, this book uncovers the harsh realities of modern inequality, soaring housing costs, and the paradox of finding refuge beneath the world's most iconic fast-food brand. Through compelling research, human stories, and social analysis, the book sheds light on the housing crisis, poverty, labor exploitation, and social safety nets that fail millions in wealthy cities worldwide. More than a documentary, it is a timely call to rethink what home means in the 21st century and how society must respond to the growing population of invisible urban poor. Perfect for readers of sociology, urban studies, homelessness, poverty studies, globalization, and social justice, this book reveals the untold human struggles hidden behind the golden arches.
