Social systems occur in many contexts of social work. This book
provides an easy-to-read introduction to systems thinking for
social workers who will encounter social problems in their
professional practice or academic research. It offers new insights
and fresh perspectives on this familiar topic and invites creative,
critical, and empathetic thinking with a systems perspective.
Through introducing systems theory as a problem-oriented approach
for dealing with complex interpersonal relations and social
systems, this book provides a framework for studying social
relations. The authors present a strand of systems theory (inspired
by sociologist Niklas Luhmann) that offers innovative, surprising,
and practically relevant understandings of everyday social life,
inclusion/exclusion, social problems, interventions, and society in
general. Systems Theory for Social Work and the Helping Professions
should be considered essential reading for all social work students
taking modules on sociology and social policy as well as students
of nursing, medicine, counselling, and occupational health and
therapy.
