The Research Handbook on Social Work and Societies explores how the global definition of social work has been translated into practice in different countries and with different client groups.. Hugh McLaughlin and Barbra Teater and their impressive team of contributors, examine the ways in which social work is conceptualised, valued and applied in varying international contexts.
This Handbook rethinks conventional paradigms surrounding social work, illustrating that it is not a fixed entity and suggesting avenues for policy reform. It outlines new opportunities for learning, practice and research between and within nations and client groups. Chapters investigate case studies from across Asia, Europe, North and South America, and Oceania, analysing social work practices amongst communities, migrants and refugees, older adults and individuals with intellectual disabilities. The Research Handbook critically reflects on indigenous, adversarial and international perspectives considering alternative futures for organising social work to positively impact service users and their communities.
Scholars, and students of social work, sociology, sociological theory and comparative social policy will greatly benefit from this forward-thinking Research Handbook. It is also an essential resource for students of welfare states, as well as practitioners and policymakers in social work and those working to reduce inequalities.
