New Approaches to Social Problems Treatment (Hardcover)

This volume examines diverse developments in the evolution of
public policy institutions for remedying social problems. The
collected chapters address the transformation of social problems,
social problems work, and social problems solutions in the context
of criminal justice, mental health, and community institutions
(schools) in contemporary society. These diverse settings and
institutions collectively reflect a trend toward the use of various
'treatment' initiatives within formal disciplinary systems and as
part of legalistic social control strategies. Although all of the
remedial approaches considered are 'new' in the sense of being
recent innovations, many are only the most recent in a long
sequence of policy initiatives. The contributors to the collection
demonstrate that recent transformations in remedial approaches to
social problems and the challenges faced by such policy initiatives
are as much a function of what has come before as they are of their
own inherent features.
