Authoritative coverage of social work policy and practice from a
global perspective
In order for social and economic justice to flourish globally, a
greater understanding of practice and policy efforts from around
the world is essential for today's professional in the human
services.
International Social Work Policy and Practice: Practical
Insights and Perspectives provides practitioners and students
with contemporary examples and thought-provoking activities to
promote in-depth insight and analysis of global social welfare
issues such as poverty and the environment.
Thorough and practical, this book examines social work policy
and practice within the context of global interdependence and
culturally appropriate modes of everyday practice. Its
country-by-country coverage includes Peru, Mongolia, Portugal,
Malawi, Costa Rica, and South Africa, following a consistent
structure that, in addition to offering real-life examples, delves
into the theoretical underpinnings, ethical dilemmas, policy
concerns, and strategies for promoting social and economic
justice.
Each example of international practice-contributed by
internationally recognized professionals who have lived and worked
in the nation they are writing about-allows readers to immerse
themselves in that country's cultural, social, historical,
political, and economic context. Reflective exercises and
Web-based, interactive activities give readers the chance to
connect and apply what they've learned.
Serving as an impetus for learning more about the unique
struggles and strengths of those in countries around the world,
International Social Work Policy and Practice offers
intriguing firsthand observations and perspectives on the relevance
of social work's leadership role in grappling with the human
elements and challenges associated with globalization.
