Confidence Culture

Více o knize

The book critiques the prevailing "confidence culture" that encourages women to focus on self-love and belief as solutions to their struggles, suggesting that these messages overlook deeper social injustices. By employing Foucault's concept of technologies of self, the authors reveal how this culture promotes constant self-scrutiny and personal responsibility for systemic issues. They argue that such individualistic approaches dilute feminist movements, advocating instead for a redefined feminism that addresses structural oppression rather than merely encouraging personal empowerment.
