Understanding International Social Work A Critical Analysis

About this book

"From its earliest days, social work has been international. Practitioners, educators, researchers and students work across national borders. Service users move between countries. And globalization has an ever-increasing impact on social issues. This absorbing text argues that understanding international social work is more than just 'knowing about other countries', instead there is a need for a greater breadth of vision and depth of understanding." "This book presents a critical analysis of international social work, examining theories, practices and organizational structures. Offering an inclusive vision for the future of social work internationally, this book is essential reading for practitioners and students of social work around the world." --Book Jacket.
