本文认为,一种特殊形式的“自我”在此时主导了西方民主国家的身份认同视野——我将这种形式的“人格”称为“企业家自我”。本文认为,“青年风险”的数字(人口),在其消极性中,阐明了企业家自我的积极性。也就是说,构建《危险中的青年》的话语揭示了我们作为成年人应该成为什么样的人的真相。本文探讨了福柯的政府理论,将(新)自由主义作为自由主义福利政府实践的问题化,以及某些心理学话语与(新)自由主义企业观相结合的方式,以产生一种将自我视为企业家自我的观点。
This paper argues that a particular form of Selfhood has come to dominate the horizons of identity in the Western democracies at this time—I refer to this form of personhood as the entrepreneurial Self. The paper argues that the figure (population) of ‘Youth at-risk’, in its negativity, illuminates the positivity that is the entrepreneurial Self. That is, the discourses that construct Youth at-risk reveal the truths about whom we should, as adults, become. The paper engages with Foucault's theories of government, of (Neo)Liberalism as a problematisation of the practise of Liberal welfare government, and of the ways in which certain psychological discourses articulate with (Neo)Liberal views of enterprise to produce a view of the Self as the entrepreneurial Self.
