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.
While the remit of social work professionals is, in general,
locality-based, social work has a long tradition of concern about
international issues. Broadening Horizons provides an engaging and
original contribution to the debate on how to tackle social work
problems on a global scale. Filling both a theoretical and a
practice gap in the literature, the book discusses the experiences
of academics, practitioners and students involved in international
exchanges in social work. It draws on a major EU-Canadian exchange
project as well as separate projects in countries including South
Africa, the USA, China and Australia. The contributors highlight
the opportunities and barriers that shaped their experience and
give guidance on how to deal with both the practicalities and
aspirations of living and working across borders. This book will
thus be invaluable both to readers interested in the meaning and
realities of international social work and to those hoping to
embark on an exchange programme themselves.

Changes in both technology and global political economy have vastly
accelerated the pace of globalization in the last 40 years, eroding
barriers that limited firms' geographic scope, and unleashing a
seemingly unlimited set of new threats, challenges, and
opportunities to create value globally. Globalization presents
managers with an environment to create value that is more complex,
risky, and also more promising than ever before. Despite recent
advances in our understanding of how locations impact the creation
and appropriation of value by firms, the speed of these changes has
often surpassed the speed of research on the connections between
geography and firms. This volume draws together researchers working
at the forefront of this area in a variety of
disciplines-economics, geography, marketing, organizational
behavior, psychology, sociology, and strategy-in order to explore
the many ways that locations matter for firms. In 11 varied papers,
the authors draw on newly available data, recently developed
theory, and diverse methodology to understand the relationships
between firm boundaries, firm activities, and geographic borders.
This book provides essential background knowledge on the
development of model-based real-world solutions in the field of
control and decision making for water systems. It presents system
engineering methods for modelling surface water and groundwater
resources as well as water transportation systems (rivers, channels
and pipelines). The models in turn provide information on both the
water quantity (flow rates, water levels) of surface water and
groundwater and on water quality. In addition, methods for
modelling and predicting water demand are described. Sample
applications of the models are presented, such as a water
allocation decision support system for semi-arid regions, a
multiple-criteria control model for run-of-river hydropower plants,
and a supply network simulation for public services.

Through in-depth qualitative research with African Canadians in
three Canadian cities--Calgary, Toronto, and Halifax--this study
explores how experiences of racism, when combined with other social
and economic factors, affect the health and well-being of this
segment of the country`s population. With a special interest in how
racial stereotyping impacts black men and boys, the book presents
stories of racism and violence and describes how reactions to
racism differ across a range of social and economic variables. In
addition, the discussion rejects the notion that black communities
are homogeneous and provides a detailed examination of three
distinct communities: Caribbean, immigrant African, and Canadian
black.
