This book, which draws from fieldwork research and evidence, is
provided to suggest a sense of emotional anxiety among social
workers and case managers working on the front-line' within local
authority social service departments in England. This is taking
place within British Prime Minister David Cameron's government
agenda of "personalization of care". This new emphasis places the
onus on the client rather than the gaze of the social worker. Yet,
there are contradictions that lie at the heart of social work,
social care and personal care. Theories have attempted to detangle
these contradictions. There have been a number of theoretical
approaches that have attempted to ground the concept of power' to
understand organisational practice though significant Foucauldian
insights that have been most captivating in illuminating power
relations and subject positioning. This book is the first of its
kind to explore the impact on 'performativity' of social workers
and governance (governmentality) of workers and clients in the
personalisation policy process.
