Recenzii
“Chapters draw on the latest research into the experiences of transnational social workers, employers and the policy contexts that impact on transnational labour market mobility. I particularly enjoyed the chapter on new public management. . . . An interesting and informative read and one I certainly recommend.”
"Breaks new ground and deserves to be widely read. . . It will appeal to practitioners and social work educators alike"
