Social Work in a Changing Scotland

Social Work in a Changing Scotland

Scotland has changed politically and culturally in recent years with persistent demands for independence culminating in a referendum in 2014. On this fluid political landscape social welfare can be co-opted towards a wider ‘nation-building’ project. As a result social work in Scotland is increasingly divergent from the rest of the UK. This book offers a comprehensive critical and timely account of the profession in these changing times charting its historical development current practice and future directions. Bringing together a range of academic and practice experts it considers social work as it is currently but also as it might be. Divided into three parts the first part sets a context identifying historical philosophical policy and legal influences on current practice. The second part picks up on current themes in policy and practice addressing key issues of professional identity in an increasingly integrated policy context. The final part contains chapters on current domains of practice identifying key areas of legislation policy and practice. Social Work in a Changing Scotland is essential reading for social work students offering an accessible yet critical overview of the profession. It will also inform current practitioners to understand better the changing contexts within which they practise while prompting further academic debate about Scottish social work.

Who is changing them? Europe’s periphery is the testing ground for the success of European values and identities.

Using intra-national and international comparisons of youth populations of Albania Bosnia-Herzegovina Croatia Kosovo Macedonia Montenegro Serbia and Vojvodina contributors uncover the mechanisms by which ethnic identities are evoked reproduced and challenged. In addition to exploring political regional cultural generational and class identities the contributors examine wider questions of European unity. This volume offers a corrective to previous thinking about youth ethnic identities and will prove useful to scholars in political science and sociology studying issues of ethnic and national identities and nationalism as well as youth cultures and identities. | Changing Youth Values in Southeast Europe Beyond Ethnicity
