Vulnerability and Young People

Care and Social Control in Policy and Practice

Edición de la obra Vulnerability and Young People

Moves to assist or protect the vulnerable now play a crucial role in welfare and criminal justice processes. This distinctive book brings together powerful lived realities of vulnerability with academic and practical applications of the concept, exploring the implications of a 'vulnerability zeitgeist' in policy and practice. It draws on in-depth research with marginalised young people and professionals who support them to question how far the rise of vulnerability serves the interests of those who are most disadvantaged. Illuminating where support shades into more controlling practices, the book is important reading for scholars, students and policy-makers interested in exclusion, precariousness, deviance and youth. --
