Sommario/riassunto

Challenges the notion that anti-oppressive practice has lost its potency or became commodified into a professional response to inequalities. This book explores key questions including - is anti-oppressive practice relevant in contemporary practice? can law be used as an empowering tool? and, can the law be used to develop anti-oppressive practice?
