Reader reviews for Power and the Self

From the publisher

This edited volume deals with an important but neglected topic--the ways in which power is experienced by individuals, as agents as well as objects of the exercise of power. Each contributor presents a series of case studies drawn from a variety of cultural contexts. These include a chapter on the treatment of patients in American nursing homes, the plight of immigrant Turkish women in the Netherlands, and one contribution that relates theories about the capacity to commit genocidal violence to "everyday forms of violence".

First line

Relations of power and the experience of people as subjects were two horizons of cultural theory in the late-twentieth century; they remain so in the twenty-first.
