James Midgley provides a broad overview of social welfare,
outlining key institutions, terminology, historical research, and
approaches. He also details reasons for the existence of
international social welfare and the challenges that arise from it.
The author includes an important section on applied international
social welfare that addresses the concerns of
practitionersuconcerns that have been neglected in much of the
literature in the field. An entire section of the book is devoted
to issues of social work practice, social development, the
activities of international agencies, and their collaborative
efforts. While practical application is an important focus of the
book, several chapters deal with key theoretical debates in the
field. The author also includes descriptive chapters that provide
comprehensive accounts of world social conditions and social
welfare institutions. As a textbook on international social
welfare, Social Welfare in Global Context is primarily intended for
students and practitioners of social work, social administration,
and social policy. But it is also relevant for students of
sociology, public policy, and economics.
