The Health Career - Life Chances - Model as Critical Social Theory...?

"... the concept of knowledge that is central to critical social theory takes in all possible forms of knowledge, from implicit knowledge (tacit knowledge, know-how, etc.) to the knowledge that we find methodically sharpened and theoretically developed within science. As a conceptual tool of critical analysis applied to contemporary society, such a notion of knowledge makes it possible to study the way that interrelations between the various forms of knowledge are shaped by the relationships between knowledge carriers and between the social groups that they form (what Znaniecki has dubbed "social circles"). Interpreted as a form of cultural capital, knowledge comes to be seen as a factor in power relations, as a potent force driving social development, and as a fundamental determinant of life chances." p.44.
