Full Description
Group Relations Work: Exploring its Impact and Relevance Within and Beyond its Network is composed of the presentations given at Belgirate IV, as well as some post conference reflections. The various chapters touch on the current flow of Group Relations as a discipline, as a method of work being applied and studied in Group Relations Conferences worldwide and in organizations, training programs, and in the understanding of social phenomena.The various chapters, while describing, articulating, exploring and conceptualizing theoretical and practical issues, are also opening various questions associated with Group Relations for further thinking and exploration. As such, this book reflects a chain at a certain point in time in the continuous practice and development of Group Relations as a discipline and a method of work.
