This is the first volume to explore clinical and applied sociology
in Aotearoa New Zealand, while also providing unique insights into
the practice of sociology internationally. Drawing out the
intersections between sociological research, public sociology and
applied sociology, the chapters in this volume enrich the rapidly
growing field of international clinical sociology. Aotearoa New
Zealand presents an important case study in the development and
practice of sociology: with a vibrant social scientific community
and a significant diversity of scholars and practitioners, local
research and practice highlight the country’s innovative and
often unusual approaches to addressing social problems. This volume
brings together a diversity of scholars and practitioners, from the
country’s top sociologists to early career researchers, and
provides a comprehensive and valuable exploration of sociology and
its many practical applications in this unique context. It covers a
wide range of key topics in the field, from the challenges of
practicing a public sociology in Aotearoa New Zealand to the role
of applied and clinical sociologists in government and
consultancies. Contemporary social issues are explored as case
studies, including practising sociological psychotherapy;
indigenous applications of sociology and Māori language learning;
and applying sociology within healthcare. This is a key addition to
applied and clinical sociology literature.
