Social Welfare Policy Analysis for Social Workers
Helps readers understand and analyze social work and social welfare
within the context of modern political systems Taking a
critical-thinking approach, Social Work, Social Welfare, and
American Society describes and analyzes social work and social
welfare within the framework of American political belief systems
to help students put social work practice into context. The
thoroughly updated 9th Edition features an increased focus on
social work practice throughout the text and in two new chapters
(Chs. 1 and 5) while continuing to examine the most up-to-date
issues in the politics of social welfare. The 9th Edition adds
discussions of the progressive and radical perspective on social
welfare in addition to liberal and conservative positions. It also
features new discussions on a wide range of issues that include
intersectionality, poverty and inequality, restorative justice, and
the opioid epidemic.
Leslie Leighninger fills an important gap in the social work
literature with her in-depth examination of the development of
social work as a profession from the 1930s through the 1960s. She
explores the major changes that took place during this period--the
creation of a broad professional association, solidification of a
system of graduate education, development of an undergraduate
training program, the rise and demise of a union movement, and the
professionalization of public welfare--in a broad historical
context.
