Social policy is central to social work practice. This textbook is
designed to help students, practitioners and academics think
critically about the relationship between policy and practice;
particularly in how policy both structures and informs practice.
Reflective questions help critical thinking and links to websites
of substantive information across the UK and internationally help
keep you up-to-date with policy developments. The authors'
experience and skills in working with different service user groups
combine to provide a constructive and critical approach to working
with social policy in an era of welfare retrenchment. Key topics
include: discretion and practice; social work training and
education; safeguarding children; responses to the needs of looked
after children; personalization in adult care; 'race' and welfare
policy; domestic violence; mental health and capacity; and
comparing social work and social care internationally.
