People whose work brings them into contact with immigrants and
their families are concerned about the serious personal and social
problems they may face in establishing themselves in Britain.
Originally published in 1972, Juliet Cheetham here explores the
origin and nature of these difficulties and discusses the
contributions and limitations of social work in meeting the needs
of immigrants, their relatives and some of the organizations
involved with them at the time. Drawing on her own field
experience, the author deals with fundamental issues in race
relations, together with the problems of poor urban areas in which
most immigrants have settled. She also considers the backgrounds of
some of the main immigrant groups, their family structure, and the
pressures and anxieties they experience in moving into a new
environment. She examines as well the special skills and
understanding that social workers in this field need to develop.
This is a perceptive study which raised fundamental questions about
the values, objectives and methods of social work at the time. Even
today it will also provide social workers with a stimulus to
re-think the basis of some of their activities. This book is a
re-issue originally published in 1972. The language used, and
assumptions made, are a reflection of its era and no offence is
meant by the Publishers to any reader by this re-publication.
