Empowerment and Control in the Australian Welfare State: A Critical Analysis of Australian Social Policy Since 1972 - Social Welfare Around the World 1st edition
Philip Mendes
Welfare states can have both social care (humanitarian) and social control (oppressive) functions. This book makes the case for an alternative participatory and decentralized welfare state model that would prioritize social care by empowering and supporting welfare service users at a local community level.
