Dear Colleagues,
Over the last few weeks we have had new posts published on the 'Cost of Living' Blog:
' Mr Drew's School: the unintended consequences of targeted interventions'
By Rhiannon Evans
On the evidence for some forms of educational interventions demonstrate lasting harm rather than enduring good..
'NHS Nu-Speak'
By Simon Carter
The NHS has plenty of mission and policy statements - on closer examination most of these are meaningless. What are the politics behind these non-statements??
'In search of a label'
By Sasha Scambler
Recent changes to Disability Living Allowance narrow spaces of resistance by creating a subversive compliance to the creeping medicalisation of disability.
'Screening, stigma and risk: FGM in Norrköping'
By Hannah Bradby
It is argued that most of us would agree that female genital mutilation should stop but do campaigns sometimes stray into stigmatizing minorities?
