Doing Anti-Oppressive Social Work brings together critical social
work authors to passionately engage with pressing social issues,
and to pose new solutions, practices and analysis in the context of
growing inequities and the need for reconciliation, decolonization
and far-reaching change. The book presents strong intersectional
perspectives and practice, engaging closely with decolonization,
re-Indigenization, resistance and social justice. Like the first
three editions, the 4th edition foregrounds the voices of those
less heard in social work academia and to provide cutting-edge
critical reflection and skills, including social work's
relationship to the state, and social work's responsibility to
individuals, communities and its own ethics and standards of
practice. Indigenous, Black, racialized, transgender, (dis)Ability
and allied scholars offer identity-engaged and intersectional
analyses on a wide-range of issues facing those working with
intersectional cultural humility, racism and child welfare, poverty
and single mothers, critical gerontology and older people, and
immigrant and racialized families. This 4th edition of Doing
Anti-Oppressive Social Work goes well beyond its predecessors,
updating and revising popular chapters, but also problematizing AOP
and engaging closely with new and emerging issues.
The second edition of Our Voices is a ground-breaking collection of
writings from Aboriginal social work educators who have
collaborated to develop a toolkit of appropriate behaviours,
interactions, networks, and intervention. The text explores a range
of current and emerging social work practice issues such as
cultural supervision, working with communities, understanding
trauma, collaboration and relationship building, and the ubiquity
of whiteness in Australian social work. It covers these issues with
new and innovative approaches and provides valuable insights into
how social work practice can be developed, taught and practiced in
ways that more effectively engage Indigenous communities.
This textbook features a groundbreaking collection of chapters
co-written by Aboriginal authors. Informed by current field
expertise, it provides an innovative teaching resource that
recognizes and appreciates Aboriginal ways of knowing, being and
doing, and demonstrates a commitment to decolonizing and
reconciliation within social work and Allied Health. Aboriginal
Fields of Practice explores many areas that have not been discussed
before in contemporary Australia, including discussion of practice
in criminal justice and an understanding of rural and remote
practice. This valuable text will provide an excellent grounding
for students and practitioners working with Aboriginal peoples.
