Profile of Prof. Mohd. Shahid

Prof. Mohd. Shahid's scholarship critically examines the relationship between social work, marginalization, power, and knowledge. His work integrates social work theory and practice with critical perspectives on hegemony, common sense, language, and structural violence. A distinctive feature of his research is the use of critical conceptual frameworks to analyse how socially constructed categories and everyday common sense understandings contribute to the marginalization of vulnerable populations.
