By analysing how countries in the so-called developing and developed world have navigated some of the inherited systems from the colonial era, it shows how they have used them to provide relevant social work methods which are also responsive to the needs of a postcolonial setting. This is an analytical and reflexive handbook that brings together different scholars from various parts of the world - both North and South - so as to distill ideas from scholars relating to ways that can advance social work of the South and critique social work of the North in so far as it is used as a template for social work approaches in postcolonial settings. It determines whether and how approaches, knowledge-bases, and methods of social work have been indigenised and localised in the Global South in the postcolonial era. This handbook provides the reader with multiple new theoretical approaches and empirical experiences and creates a space of action for the most marginalised communities worldwide. It will be of interest to researchers and practitioners, as well as those in social work education.Routledge international handbooks.Social servicePracticeDeveloping countriesSocial servicePracticeCross-cultural studiesPostcolonialismDeveloping countriesSocial servicePracticeSocial servicePracticePostcolonialism361.3091724Kleibl Tanja1493809Lutz Ronald1951-1493810Noyoo Ndangwa1968-1493811Benjamin Bunk1493812Annika Dittmann1493813Boitumelo Seepamore1493814OCoLC-POCoLC-PBOOK9910793758803321The Routledge Handbook of Postcolonial Social Work3717010UNINA
