Radical social work is a tradition often identified exclusively
with the movement which developed in the UK in the 1970s, yet as
this much-needed new textbook demonstrates, the relevance of
radical approaches to contemporary social work practice have never
been stronger. Challenges to a neoliberal approach to social work
have been gaining ground academically, and, to a lesser extent, in
practice circles. This book provides a fresh understanding of the
radical tradition and shows how it can be developed in contemporary
social work. Using case studies and real life scenarios to
illustrate the type of dilemmas faced by workers in their
day-to-day practice, this book sets out the ways in which a radical
social work approach can inform constructive responses.This book
emphasises the need to understand the diverse lives of service
users, encouraging readers to share experience and knowledge and to
discuss past and present events, to build confidence in tackling
injustice at individual and societal levels. As many social workers
are becoming disillusioned and dissatisfied with the profession,
this book promotes a practice that is rooted in a commitment to
positive change and to social justice that will offer a breathe of
fresh air to students and practitioners alike.
