Dahl argues that in order to grasp these new realities of care we need a new analytical framework that redirects us to new sites of contestation. Dahl approaches these issues from a post-structuralist and radical feminist position, while drawing from feminist sociology, feminist political science, nursing philosophy and feminist history.

“Throughout the book, Dahl demonstrates how elderly care has become the object of political debate and, in the process, been actively politicised. … It was great pleasure to read Dahl’s book, which navigates the rich discussion around contemporary elderly care. … Dahl makes readers realise the importance of challenging the hybrid forms of regulation on elderly care through critical analysis.” (Maho Omori, Journal of Sociology, October, 5, 2018)
