    摘要、提要註: 'Individualization' refers to the construction of the individual as the unit of social action. The authors here argue that this has led to a major rethinking of welfare and the welfare state, away from the construction of the 'needy' citizen as a client of a patrimonial state, towards the conception of all citizens as active users of human services. Bringing together political theory, psychoanalytic theory and social policy this book poses an original theory of individualization in its implications for the idea of the welfare state. It proposes two distinct and opposing conceptions of the individual as the subject of welfare: the individual as a self and the individual as a will. Arguing that a public conception of welfare makes sense only in relation to the self as the subject of welfare, the book shows that welfare services which facilitate and secure a sense of self emphasize the service delivery relationship.
