Produktbeschreibung

The Routledge Handbook of Social Work Ethics and Values is a comprehensive exploration and assessment of current and future issues facing social work practice and education. It is the first book to codify ethical practices for social workers from across the globe and in myriad workplace settings.

Each section meaningfully captures this complex subject area:

• ethics writ large
• visions of diverse values
• abortion
• relationship and gender issues
• micro and mezzo practice settings
• social work education
• technological issues
• spirituality
• globalism
• economic issues
• special topics

Leaving no stone unturned, this handbook comprehensively addresses the most controversial topics in an evenhanded manner. Among professional social workers, values and ethics traverse political boundaries, cultural identifications, and languages. This handbook will help to make sense of this unity within diversity.

With contributions from the world's leading scholars, this book will be a valuable resource for all social work students, academics, researchers, and practitioners who seek a coherent and objective analysis in the abstract arena of ethics and values.

Rezensionen

'This impressive volume provides an excellent illustration of how social work values and ethics demand clarity regarding both relevant questions and sensible solutions. In advocating for lucidity of thought and inquiry, this book is a valuable resource for those wishing to engage in thinking about and practicing social work in a variety of settings'. - Daniel Pollack, Professor at Wurzweiler School of Social Work, Yeshiva University, New York City

'Stephen Marson and Robert McKinney have compiled the most comprehensive resource on social work values and ethics available. With a cadre of diverse experts and authors, this book contains a wealth of information and guidance for both neophyte and experienced practitioners. It is a remarkable and timely undertaking.' Grafton H. Hull, Jr. EdD., Professor Emeritus, University of Utah College of Social Work

'Marson and McKinney have pulled together a thorough anthology of essays and research articles about ethics in social work and the principles that should guide our professional work. There is nothing more important in professional education than teaching students how to confront ethical issues and to solve ethical problems while maintaining the dignity of all persons.
