Social work in extremis: Lessons for social work internationally Michael Lavalette (Liverpool Hope University)

What is the relationship between social work and the state? Who controls which services needs are addressed and how? This important book looks at social work responses in different countries to extreme social, economic and political situations in order to answer these questions. Examples include: war situations, military regimes, earthquakes and Tsunamis. The results show the innovative nature of grass-roots provision and social work intervention and will be of interest to all social work academics, students and professionals.

Social work in extremis Bewertungen

...the collection offers a breath of fresh air and would be a welcome addition to any library. Jill Manthorpe in Professional Social Work
...easy to read with digestible and gripping chapters. I found that, after completing one chapter, I could not wait to get to the next... I would highly recommend this book to social workers. Crystal L. Minors, Social Research Association News
This is easily the most enjoyable social work book I have read for a decade. Practice Reflexions
This is an exciting book, which lifts one's gaze from familiar domestic problems to those of global (primarily European) stress. It uses the experience of its authors in disaster situations to revitalise the discussion about the boundary between social work and political action, and argues the need for different skills and different training in social workers. European Journal of Social Work
a fascinating read and offers insights from a variety of time and geographical perspectives...the position of the author impacted upon the choice of subject matter and his perspective...makes for a very enjoyable and informative read Dr Simon Haslam, Director FMR Research Ltd
This excellent collection represents a major contribution to a growing literature documenting the ways in which social workers continue to struggle for social justice in conditions of political oppression and adversity. Iain Ferguson, University of Stirling
