Book Synopsis Power and Welfare by : Nanna Mik-Meyer
Book excerpt: When the state punishes criminals or removes children at risk, its power is immediately apparent. However, power is also at stake when the state seeks to educate, advise, or empower citizens, and this book encourages reflection on the exercise of professional power in these less coercive encounters.
