This is the first book of a two-volume set that focuses on how authors have pushed boundaries in a particular field of practice, research or policy in social work. The books are culturally, gender-, and geographically inclusive, with contributors from every inhabited continent. It is future-focused, hopeful, and inspiring: it focuses on solutions rather than merely elaborating problems. The book includes chapters from a continuum of experienced practitioners and early career researchers; this provides a nuanced and accessible view of boundaries from both ends of the career path. The global definition of social work says that the discipline 'promotes social change and development, social cohesion and the empowerment and liberation of people' but in many nations where social work exists, social workers are expected to act as agents of social control, ensuring that people?particularly 'the poor'?conform to established political and social norms. Most often social workers are initially attracted to the discipline because they want to empower and liberate vulnerabilised and marginalised people and communities. In order to accomplish these high-minded goals, social workers must occasionally push boundaries that confine their practice. This volume contains eight chapters from social workers who are pushing social work boundaries in their own social and national settings. The contents are organised into two clusters: pushing boundaries for women and children and pushing boundaries against isms and stigma. Each chapter contains learnings that are applicable in different practice settings around the world. Pushing Boundaries in Social Work Around the World, Vol. 1: Women, Children and Isms inspires social workers to push against the boundaries we impose on ourselves and our discipline. This book helps social workers rediscover the spark that initially drew them to their work. 410 0$aAdvancing Social Work Practice, Policy, and Research,$x2731-9636 606 $aSocial service 606 $aHuman services 606 $aSocial service$xResearch 606 $aSocial Work 606 $aSocial Work Policy 606 $aSocial Work Research 615 0$aSocial service. 615 0$aHuman services. 615 0$aSocial service$xResearch. 615 14$aSocial Work. 615 24$aSocial Work Policy. 615 24$aSocial Work Research. 676 $a361.3 700 $aHenrickson$b Mark$01833815 701 $aCoffey$b Darla Spence$01833816 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911015688203321 996 $aPushing Boundaries in Social Work Around the World, Vol. 1$94408752 997 $aUNINA
