Social Work in a Glocalised World de Mona Livholts

Social Work in a Glocalised World: Routledge Advances in Social Work

Editat de Mona Livholts, Lia Bryant
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 mar 2020
This engaging and timely volume contributes new knowledge to the rapidly emerging field of globalisation and social work. The volume brings together cutting-edge interdisciplinary scholarship from countries such as Australia, Finland, Japan, South Africa, the Philippines and Sweden. It proposes ‘glocalisation’ as a useful concept for re-framing conditions, methodologies and practices for social work in a world perspective.
Part I of the volume, 'The Glocalisation of Social Issues', deals with major environmental, social and cultural issues – migration and human rights, environmental problems and gendered violence. Part II, 'Methodological Re-Shaping and Spatial Transgression in Glocalised Social Work', develops an epistemology of situated knowledge and methodologies inspired by art, creative writing and cultural geography, focusing on physical, material and emotional spatial dimensions of relevance to social work. Part III, 'Responses from Social Work as a Glocalised Profession', examines how social work has responded to specific social problems, crises and vulnerabilities in a glocalised world.

Recenzii

'Mona Livholts and Lia Bryant’s Social Work in a Glocalized World is a wonderful and timely book. A glocalised perspective is a whole way of framing social work, which we can no longer ignore. This volume walks the reader through the many ways in which the global and the local come together in forms of knowledge, practice and research methodology, drawing from diverse geopolitical regions, and weaving legal, economic, policy and discursive arguments together. The volume has a strong feminist voice. It expands social work views to include chapters on writing, participatory arts, and on film-making. I learned a lot from it, and I highly recommend it for teachers, students, practitioners, policy-makers and post-disciplinary learners.'
Adrienne Chambon, Ph.D., Professor Emerita, University of Toronto, Factor-Inwentash Faculty of Social Work
‘Social Work in a Glocalised World makes an important contribution to global discourse and the dialogues that flow from it. Too often social work’s involvement in global issues winds up masking or reproducing the very concerns that motivated its involvement. In large part, this is due to the application of traditional analyses and understandings and the absence of innovative critical approaches. In contrast, this book challenges such ways of thinking and the knowledge it produces and proposes alternative approaches to knowledge generation such as through new forms of writing and the arts. In doing so, the authors of this book make an important contribution to our understanding of global issues and open a space where new and more relevant responses to these issues can be developed.’
Stanley L. Witkin, Professor, Department of Social Work, University of Vermont, Burlington, Vermont, USA and President, Global Partnership for Transformative Social Work.
