This book brings a novel approach to issues of connecting social
work practice to theory and the personal life narrative. The
authors each find their own unique way of integrating the self,
theory, and practice, in different social work practice and
education settings. Contributors use the methodology of narrative
to tell their story about their social work journey, be that in
research, teaching, or practice. The backdrop for this book is
Sweden. The country's rich heritage of welfare provision but also
recent cultural diversity offers a unique Nordic context to the
subject matter. The contributors engage with these new conditions
for Swedish social work through an intersectional lens. Topics
explored include: Digging in the present: A day in the life of a
school counsellor We live in a political world: Between needs and
money The problematic labour market situation of immigrants to
Sweden: Consequences and causes Tackling the contradictory nature
of social work Using anti-oppressive practice to promote social
inclusion in social work education The result is a book that is
personal and reflexive, and positions the contributors' narratives
as a window to understand and address social problems. Narratives
of Social Work Practice and Education in Sweden should engage those
interested in the Swedish welfare state, and who want to learn
about how social work is taught and practised in this country.
Intended to be a general introduction, the book provides guidance
to those considering working in the field and for those newly
qualified. It also provides examples for students of social work to
connect personal narratives to social work settings.
