Social Work Ethics: Progressive, Practical, and Relational Approaches

Social Work Ethics: Progressive, Practical, and Relational Approaches explores social work ethics from the ground up, building on recent research that gave rise to ethical dilemmas and conflicts in social services. The text addresses current contexts, practice environments, and challenges that social workers face in their professional lives. A contemporary, contributed volume, it draws on the expertise of both academics and practitioners to provide students with fascinating examples of ethical issues in action - issues that they can relate to their own lives. Pedagogical features like chapter objectives, discussion questions, bolded key terms, and Case Example boxes will encourage direct critical engagement with the material, and useful appendices like the CASW Code of Ethics and the Social Worker and Social Services Worker Regulatory Bodies and Associations across Canada will ensure that Social Work Ethics is a valuable addition to the library of any social work student.
