  “Commodity and Relational Good Exchanges: Commodification and Decommodification” 2

  Sociologists often describe abuses of power between groups. However

  abuses also occur within groups as a result of disparate resources of all kinds (physical strength

  knowledge

  money and so on). While many societies rightly focus on providing help for vulnerable groups

  individuals can be victims of abuse within all kinds of groups (whether those groups are considered vulnerable or not). Some countries have began taking steps to identify individuals (rather than groups) that are vulnerable due to resource deficiency. This may best be done through \"eyes and ears\" programs. A good example in the United States are programs that make people in certain positions (bankers

  clergy

  teachers) the \"eyes and ears\" of the state in detecting elder and child abuse. This chapter serves as an introduction to thinking about the benefits and challenges inherent in the endeavor to protect vulnerable individuals vs. just vulnerable groups of people. \n\nOnline preview: https://books.google.com/books?id=B_1yBgAAQBAJ&pg=PT69&lpg=PT69&dq=jeff+oliver+general+help&source=bl&ots=CjictmOTnl&sig=1cr1b3kzz9EdccXT6xury8o3R94&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiE-8aQjuvKAhUon4MKHWfDA1AQ6AEIIzAB#v=onepage&q=jeff%20oliver%20general%20help&f=false\n
