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.
