Abstract:
|
The changes in welfare policy implemented in 1996 were derived from the culture of poverty model, which directed the public’s attention to the “deviant behavior” of individual welfare recipients. Portraying welfare recipients as the problem and program reform as the solution obscured gendered and racist ideologies that have historically shaped the welfare state. Although critical theorists have employed class, gender, or race frameworks to critique both the assumptions of the culture of poverty model, and the resulting welfare reform policy, these theories have not adequately addressed the links between key axes of social inequality. This paper tentatively explores the utility of motherhood ideology as a way to conceptually bridge the gaps between class, gender, and race theories. |
