Power, ethics and youth work

Research output: Chapter in Book / Conference PaperChapterpeer-review

Abstract

The question of power is one of the most fundamental in any study of human relations. As such, it has rightly occupied the attention of political philosophers, political scientists, sociologists and others concerned with human relations. At times, the question has been a sleeper – there, but taken for granted and inactive. At times, theorists have traded on a kind of uneasy consensus about a proper understanding of the origin and process of power. At times, the question has been thrown into stark debate.
