The Ethical Foundations of Social Work
About this book
The Ethical Foundations of Social Work offers an engaging, theoretically rigorous and practice-orientated grounding in social work ethics.
Fully revised and expanded, with the addition of four new chapters on Decolonial Ethics, Social Work and Radicalisation, the Ethics of Recognition and Epistemic Injustice, this book examines when, how and why principles and debates have historically emerged, and explicitly map them onto everyday ethical challenges and situations in social work practice. By presenting and explaining key theories and applying them to real-world practice examples from different regions, The Ethical Foundations of Social Work guides social work students and practitioners in developing ethical reasoning to support ethical decision-making in diverse contexts.
Promoting an ethically 'conscious' approach in which principles are integrated flexibly and confidently as tools for critical problem solving, this book serves as a core or supplemental textbook for Social Work Ethics courses at undergraduate or postgraduate levels.
