Food Charity and the Psychologisation of Poverty - Foucault in the Food Bank (Paperback)

* Fascinating reading for advanced undergraduate and any postgraduate students of discourse studies as well as those with an interest in the relationship between charity, poverty and social exclusion. The conceptual material will also appeal more widely to researchers who wish to study processes of psychologisation and neoliberal government from a critical perspective * Direct applications of concepts to the real-world example of food banks offer an accessible entry into Foucault's thought and can offer practical guidance for those designing empirical projects in critical psychology * Addresses a clear gap in the market for a book that engages critically with the discourses and power dynamics in charity settings and may even inform the practices of anti-poverty campaigners and encourage critical reflection among food bank volunteers
