Description

Empowerment: A Critique examines how the concept of empowerment has evolved from its emergence in the 1960s to its current ubiquity in modern discourse. McLaughlin provides a rigorous analysis of empowerment's social status and its role across social policy, social work, and health and social care sectors. The book interrogates the relationship between empowerment and power, exploring how a focus on empowerment has fundamentally shifted away from political subjects exercising autonomous power. This innovative volume from Routledge's Key Themes in Health and Society series offers critical insight into a term widely considered self-evident good, yet deserving deeper scrutiny. Perfect for scholars, practitioners, and students in sociology, social policy, and health studies seeking to understand how empowerment shapes contemporary discourse and practice.
