Transforming Social Work Practice: Postmodern Critical Perspectives

Bob Pease (Editor), Jan Fook (Editor)

Research output: Book/ReportBookpeer-review

Abstract

Transforming Social Work Practice shows that postmodern theory offers new strategies for social workers concerned with political action and social justice. It explores ways of developing practice frameworks, paradigms and principles which take advantage of the perspectives offered by postmodern theory without totally abandoning the values of modernity and the Enlightenment project of human emancipation. Case studies demonstrate how these perspectives can be applied to practice.
