Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The profession of social work and its representative bodies are in numerous ways involved in European politics. At the same time social work practice is affected by EU regulations, coordination, funding and jurisdiction in relevant policy fields.This book provides a systematic and practice-based reflection on the issues of how current political activities in the EU and beyond are social work-driven, affect social work, and give reason for an even deeper involvement of organized social work in European politics.Based on a structured dialogue among professors, students of social work, social workers, social NGOs, and policymakers, this text tackles European policy issues from various perspectives. Starting with theoretical reflections the authors discuss the political mandate of social work and how it applies to the EU polity sui generis as well as to the pan-European institutional settings of the Council of Europe.This is followed by analyses of different European social work policies (homeless policy, European Social Fund (ESF), basic income policy, prostitution policy) and their impact on social services and its clients.The next part shifts the focus to actors and institutions. The authors asked policy staff of social NGOs, human rights organizations, churches and social service providers to give their perspectives on how they lobby current EU policy initiatives and regulations regarding social problems. Finally, authors discuss the state of the art in selected European countries and the question of how social work politics in Europe could be strengthened. The volume concludes with concrete examples of participation and career opportunities in European social policy for students and graduates of social work.Building Social Work Politics in Europe: Research Approaches, Practices, and Perspectives is a useful and timely text for students of social work at all levels (BA, MA, third cycle), schools of social work, universities of applied sciences with social work study programs, practitioners and executive management of organized social work and social service provision internationally and in Europe in particular.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Critical multicultural practice, rather than being a specialism, is integral to Australian social work. Drawing on critical race theory, critical multiculturalism, intersectionality and critical reflection as practice theory, this major new edited collection challenges many of the dominant assumptions of cross-cultural social work and provides instead a new model of transformative engagement. Key concepts are considered, including identity, culture, diversity and superdiversity, how power and privilege shape everyday interactions and what is meant by citizenship in the contemporary context. Part One explores the changing nature of multicultural practice in Australia, including our society's changing demographic profile, the impact of asylum and refugee migrations, race and racism and cultural identity. Indigenous perspectives and the relationship with multicultural practice are examined, together with the ethical and legal basis for multicultural practice. This part concludes with an outline of the editors' framework for critical multicultural practice. Part Two draws on contributions from a range of practitioners and offers new perspectives on diverse fields, including child protection, mental health, disability, ageing, homelessness and rural and regional practice.Featuring case studies and insights drawn from across the spectrum of practice, this book is a vital resource for all social workers practising in Australia today.'[A] rich and nuanced analysis of what is happening at the interfaces of our work and the lives of Australian citizens, [it] articulates ways forward that are genuine, bold and empathetic.'From the foreword by Professor Kerry Arabena, The University of Melbourne.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Social work has always embraced the service of helping people. But since its beginnings around the mid-1870's, two fronts within social work have been divided in their view on how to best do this. One front has promoted the scientific approach to fight social injustice through its association with a theoretically based university education of social workers. The other front has avoided this approach, instead leaning towards a course-based practical training of social workers where the puritan helper view were essential for deciding whether the client deserved help or not. This book discusses the practices of social work and the different global perspectives on the topic. It also includes challenges involved in social work, as well as educational implications.
