Abstract

Globally, social work faces increasingly complex cultural, political, economic, legal, organisational, technological and professional conditions. Critically refecting on the subject, this book heightens critical consciousness among social work researchers, educators, practitioners and students about the structural dimensions of social problems and human suffering; it highlights the inter-relationship between agency and structure and discusses strategies to challenge and change both individual and societal consciousness. Offering the reader an opportunity to gain in-depth understanding of how critical refection is possible in contemporary social work research, practice and education, it will be required reading for all social work scholars, students and professionals.
