Next steps: what do we know about thinking complexity and acting pragmatically in social work?.This textbook provides a grounding in complexity theory, demonstrating how it can influence and shape social work interventions in policy, management, and practice, as well as forming an epistemological and methodological basis for research. It provides a contemporary theoretical basis for social work practice, equipping social workers to work in a 21st-Century world. The authors argue that the history of social work demonstrates the profession's engagement with the social and structural problems of each era since its emergence 150 years ago. However, in the 21st Century, such things as globalisation, the COVID-19 pandemic, and climate change have highlighted that existing theories and practice models are insufficient to the task of working with the complicatedness of contemporary life in a fast-changing world. Distilling the central tenets of Complexity Theory and the notion of complex adaptive systems in partnership with pragmatism, the book provides practice perspectives and guidelines which build on social work's enduring commitment to understanding the person-in-context. The recognition that social workers require conceptual and theoretical agility to work across micro, meso and macro 'levels' remains central, but the argument is made that their focus and practice must primarily be at the meso level. The authorship of combined academic and practice expertise enables such perspectives to be brought to life through the theoretical and practical analysis of conceptual and 'real-world' challenges. The book consists of 13 chapters organized in three sections: Part I: Complex Practice in a Complex World Part II: Thinking Complexity in Practice Part III: Thinking Complexity in Public Policy, Research and Education Complexity Theory for Social Work Practice encourages social workers to 'think complexity' and 'act pragmatically'. It is intended for final-year social work students; academics and researchers working in a range of disciplines, primarily in the social work field but also in the areas of sociology, psychology and anthropology; and practitioners in policy, research, management and practice settings. .Social serviceSocial serviceResearchCommunity developmentTheory and Method in Social WorkSocial WorkSocial Work ResearchSocial Work and Community DevelopmentSocial service.Social serviceResearch.Community development.Theory and Method in Social Work.Social Work.Social Work Research.Social Work and Community Development.361.301361.301McDermott Fiona1439124MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910763598903321Complexity Theory for Social Work Practice3660444UNINA03426nam 22006735 450 991034941290332120251225203443.09783319984469331998446210.1007/978-3-319-98446-9(CKB)4100000005958177(DE-He213)978-3-319-98446-9(MiAaPQ)EBC6307051(PPN)229916171(EXLCZ)99410000000595817720180807d2018 u| 0engurnn#008mamaatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierComputational Collective Intelligence 10th International Conference, ICCCI 2018, Bristol, UK, September 5-7, 2018, Proceedings, Part II /edited by Ngoc Thanh Nguyen, Elias Pimenidis, Zaheer Khan, Bogdan Trawiński1st ed. 2018.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2018.1 online resource (XXV, 521 p. 171 illus.)Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence,2945-9141 ;110569783319984452 3319984454 Decision Support and Control Systems -- Cooperative Strategies for Decision Making and Optimization -- Complex Decision Systems -- Machine Learning in Real-World Data -- Intelligent Sustainable Smart Cities -- Computer Vision Techniques.This two-volume set (LNAI 11055 and LNAI 11056) constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Collective Intelligence, ICCCI 2018, held in Bristol, UK, in September 2018 The 98 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 240 submissions.
