Description

Social Development in Social Work Practices and Principles by Richard Hugman provides an introduction to this important aspect of social work. It explores how social development can be understood as a core aspect of practice, examining the significance of economics, politics, and the environment for a developmental approach. The book uses concrete examples from around the world to address questions about social development in social work, including its contribution to international and domestic social work, and the skills, knowledge, and theory required by social workers. This innovative text argues that social development should be at the centre of contemporary social work practice and theory, making it ideal for students and academics interested in this area. Suitable for those looking to understand the role of social development in social work, this book offers a valuable resource for anyone working or studying in the field of social services and welfare.
