The Role of Gender in Practice Knowledge Summary

The Role of Gender in Practice Knowledge: Claiming Half the Human Experience by Josefina Figueira McDonough

Feminist critiques of the social sciences are based on the assumption that because the social sciences were developed for the most part by white, middle-class, Western men, the perspectives of women were ignored. This book offers an approach for integrating gender-related content into the social work curriculum. The distinguished contributors discuss the shortcoming of dominant knowledge, address the pressing need for a gender-integrated curriculum, consider the pedagogies consistent with the implementation of an integrate curriculum, address specific areas in social work education, assessing content, and assumptions, and discuss strategic issues for the implementation of curricular knowledge.
