Nadasen challenges readers to scrutinize the way contemporary care discourse centers white, middle-class families, shifting the focus towards those denied the care that capitalism heavily relies upon.
Through storytelling, Nadasen highlights how vague notions of care obscure the stark differences in working conditions between paid and unpaid carers, ultimately revealing new modes of biopolitical management and violence within the care economy.
Nadasen blurs worker/surplus and employer/employee dichotomies, yet fails to explicitly address the carceral nature of care despite brief mentions of guardianship and the foster system, missing a crucial opportunity for discussion.
