European and North American notions of helping - or managing - poor
and marginalised people have deep roots in religious texts and
traditions which continue to influence contemporary social policy
and social work practice in ways which many do not realise.
Bringing together interdisciplinary scholarship, Mark Henrickson
argues that it is essential to understand and critique social
work's origins in order to work out what to retain and what must
change if we are to achieve the vision of a truly global
profession. Addressing current debates in international social work
about social justice, professionalisation, and the legacy of
colonisation, this thought-provoking book will allow practitioners
and scholars to consider and create a global future for social
work.
