Caring, social policy, and homelessness
Theoretical Medicine and Bioethics 23 (6):441-454 (2002)
Abstract
Care theory offers a way to overcome a weaknessof liberalism – its reluctance to intervene inthe private lives of adults. In caring for thehomeless, we must sometimes use a limited formof coercion, but our intervention is alwaysinteractive, and the process of finding asolution is one of negotiation between theneeds expressed by the homeless and the needswe infer for them.My notes
