What role does emotion play in child and family social work
practice? In this book, researcher Matthew Gibson reviews the role
of shame and pride in social work, providing invaluable new
insights from the first study undertaken into the role of these
emotions within professional practice. The author demonstrates how
these emotions, which are embedded within the very structures of
society but experienced as individual phenomena, are used as
mechanism of control in relation to both professionals themselves
and service users. Examining the implications of these emotional
experiences in the context of professional practice and the
relationship between the individual, the family and the state, the
book calls for a more humane form of practice, rooted in more
informed policies that take in to consideration the realities and
frailties of the human experience.
