What do the stories youth in state care tell about life in their
family of origin? What stories do they tell us about coming into
care, living in care, and relationships with foster-parents and
social workers? This book presents the stories of youth in care,
though not in splendid isolation, but as interactively produced,
turn by turn in interviews, and in conversations with other youth.
By using tools from conversation analysis (CA), the author examines
interviews with youth in care and social workers, to unfold the
essential and incorrigible reflexivity of story production. CA
allows us to grasp the ways that a youth's story emerges turn by
turn, and is an artefact of a social relation between a youth and
an interviewer. This text provides social work readers with a sense
of art, artistry, and ambiguity at the heart of social interaction.
It will be required reading for all social work students and
academics looking for a deeper, more philosophical understanding of
the profession.
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
