The ambiguities of autonomy in youth training programmes
In recent decades, young people have been provided with various support systems, including therapeutic training programmes to enhance their mental health and well-being through empowerment and support of individual autonomy.

These manifestations are part of the emergence of the Nordic therapeutic welfare state where neoliberalisation…
