Full Description
What does it mean for social work to truly uphold human rights in an era marked by economic austerity, political polarisation and global crises?
Human Rights in Social Work offers a powerful and timely response, calling for a fundamental rethinking of practice rooted in relational, dignity-driven approaches. Grounded in critical theory, education and real-world issues, this book interrogates the limitations of current approaches while offering a compelling vision for a more just, relational and accountable social work on which intersectionality and cultures of peace play a key role.
Bringing together leading voices in theory, practice and research, the book examines how social workers can move beyond rhetoric - confronting the profession's own historic and ongoing failings - to embed a deeper, more intersectional understanding of human rights into social work's core.
