Besides pointing out the fuzzy definition of the target group of punitive regulation, it questions whether penal containment is generalizable as \u2018core\u2019 of the neoliberal state. Third, it critiques the selective treatment of contemporary poverty policies (excluding a variety of, for example, activating, neoliberal policies), built on a skewed view of the transition from a supposedly generous \u2018nanny state\u2019 to a strict \u2018daddy state\u2019. Fourth, it challenges the claim of \u2018overall fitness\u2019 of punitive containment of urban marginality and the absence of agency and contradictions from the model.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">[Mayer, M., &#8222;Punishing the Poor &#8211; a Debate.
