Synopsis

Many students have little theoretical or practical experience of values and ethics in social work when they begin their studies. This book tackles that lack of knowledge by identifying current issues in applying ethical decisions to social work. These issues are then investigated further within an anti-discriminatory framework and against the background of the code of practice for social care workers and employers. Traditional value perspectives are clearly explained and current developments in virtue theory and the ethics of care for social work are also introduced.
All the key ethical conflicts and dilemmas that social workers face are examined, using a case study approach drawn from actual real life cases. By applying ethical and value questions to contemporary social work, the author deals in depth with issues of partnership in working with other professionals and service users. The values and ethics of those who employ social workers are also investigated and the ethical issues surrounding work within an increasingly managerial culture are explored.
