This article examines the construction of policy problems through the exploration of the theoretical space opened up by the ‘What’s the Problem Represented to be?’ (WPR) approach developed by Bacchi (2009). It proposes a critical analysis of current policies governing teenage pregnancy in France through the deconstruction of the structures that have participated in shaping the ‘problem’ today. Focusing on discursive practices, the analysis unveils the political essence of the knowledge that constitutes the problem of ‘teen pregnancy’, and points to the constant flux characterising it, which is captured and stabilised in policymaking through problematisation. It is argued that these conclusions call for greater self-reflexivity in research and policymaking and prompt critical and feminist researchers to engage with disrupting current policymaking rationality.

本文通过探索“代表的问题是什么?”所开辟的理论空间,审视政策问题的建构。(WPR) 方法由 Bacchi (2009) 开发。它通过解构参与塑造当今“问题”的结构,对法国现行的少女怀孕政策进行批判性分析。着眼于话语实践,分析揭示了构成“少女怀孕”问题的知识的政治本质,并指出了其特征的不断变化,通过问题化在政策制定中被捕获和稳定。
