International Social Work - Social Problems, Cultural Issues and Social Work Education

The book focuses on three key issues of international social work: - on international dimensions of social problems and how social work practice can deal with these challenges, - on cultural issues social workers have to- think of when practicing, teaching an- developing social work on an international- level and finally - on aspects of international approaches in social work education. The authors are practicing and teaching social- work in several countries and their personal- and educational background allowed them to- gain a profound experience on international- social work. This makes the authors not only- writing about international perspectives but- also from an international perspective.

Commentaire

This collection of edited papers is a welcome addition to the existing body of literature on international social work. ... it contains unique debates supported by vivid illustrations and can be recommended to members of the social work profession and, in particular, those engaged in social work education. It contains debates on so many of the issues involved in an ever changing professional identity moulded by the processes of globalization. British Journal of Social Work No 38 February 2008
