Tytuł:: ‘Disciplining’ Truth and Science: Michel Foucault and the Power of Social Science
Autorzy:: Powell, Jason L.

Tematy:: Methodologies
Michel Foucault
Power
Social Science
Opis:: This article explores the works of French philosopher, Michel Foucault and examines its implications for understanding power and social relations. Despite this, there has been very little Foucauldian analysis of social science and its relationship to power (Powell 2012). Hence, the article discusses the relationship between Foucault’s conceptual tools of ‘power’, the emergence of ‘the modern subject’, the individual and the important concept of ‘body’ as they apply to a methodological and epistemological understanding of social science in contemporary society.

Power
Opis:: This paper explores the implications of social and economic changes in the ‘Global South’ of the World. In particular, we examine case studies of Japan and China and the impact of populational aging on their economic policies and social practices. Key examples of uneven distributions of, or access to, opportunities have the potential to give rise to further social or economic tensions. Whilst the scholarly base is expanding, more is to be done to ascertain the characterization of inequalities. Indeed, if these substantive issues are to be addressed comprehensively, the key then is to move beyond a Western academic paradigm, and to purposefully involve critical scholarship from intellectuals from the Global South. Doing so will add a vitality of experience in discussing how economic growth is, or may not be coupled with, inequality.

Tytuł:: Gender, Masculinity, Contemporary History and the Psychiatric Secure Estate: Back to the Future?
Autorzy:: Powell, Jason L.
Taylor, Paul
Powiązania:: https://bibliotekanauki.pl/articles/1193929.pdf
Data publikacji:: 2015
Wydawca:: Przedsiębiorstwo Wydawnictw Naukowych Darwin / Scientific Publishing House DARWIN
Tematy:: bio-psychology
gender
masculinity
power
secure units
Opis:: In contemporary history, the use of gendered treatments for women with mental health issues in the psychiatric secure estate is an issue of major concern in Great Britain. This paper examines women and gender in the psychiatric secure estate from a structural analysis drawing influence from Connell’s (1987) theoretical and conceptual work on hegemonic masculinity. Bio-psychological approaches have almost dominated academic discussion in relation to women’s incarceration and there is an reflexive need to develop other sociological frameworks on hegemonic masculinity because dominant bio-psychological models have failed to identify underlying configurations which combine to oppress women whilst simultaneously reproducing consequences of masculinity and power within institutional structures.

Tytuł:: Reconstructing Social Policy and Ageing
Autorzy:: Powell, Jason L.
Halsall, Jamie
Powiązania:: https://bibliotekanauki.pl/articles/1194055.pdf
Data publikacji:: 2015
Wydawca:: Przedsiębiorstwo Wydawnictw Naukowych Darwin / Scientific Publishing House DARWIN
Tematy:: Ageing
Foucault
Governance
Social Policy
Opis:: This article draws from the work of Michel Foucault to reconstruct an understanding of social policy and ageing in contemporary Britain. In many ways, policy provides three trajectories for older people; first, as independent self-managing consumers with private means and resources; second, as people in need of some support to enable them to continue to self-manage and third, as dependent and unable to commit to self-management. Governmentality provides the theoretical framework through which to view policy and practice that is largely governed by discourses of personalisation.
