Social Policy and Social Justice: Meeting the Challenges of a
Diverse Society is built on a clear, conceptual social justice
framework and provides up-to-date rigorous analyses of contemporary
social policy issues, written by experts in their particular areas
of research and practice. The book explores the relationship of
social policy to economic, social, and culture transformation and
the ongoing conflict between universal and population-specific
conceptions of social welfare. The fourth edition provides readers
with the most comprehensive and up-to-date information and analyses
related to social policy and social justice. It discusses the
effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on socioeconomic inequality in the
U.S.; the Trump administration's impact on social policy; policy
initiatives undertaken and proposed by the Biden administration;
and the implications of the Black Lives Matter movement on the
development of anti-racist social policies. The text examines
ongoing political and ideological conflicts on social policies that
affect women; the consequences of recent changes in the Supreme
Court and federal judiciary on social policy; the impact of the
Affordable Care Act on health care access, cost, and quality; the
emergence of environmental justice and climate change as key social
policy issues; and more. Social Policy and Social Justice is ideal
for undergraduate and graduate social work courses, as well as
classes in cognate fields such as nursing, public policy, and
political science.
