Blame, Culture and Child Protection. 330 $aIn recent years child protection issues have dominated media and public discourse in the UK. This book offers a unique perspective by giving voice to those social workers working within a profession which has become increasingly embedded in a culture of blame. Exploring how statutory child protection agencies function, Leigh also reveals how ?organisational culture? can significantly affect the way in which social work is practised. Providing a comparative analysis between the UK and Belgium, Leigh uses ethnography to illuminate the differences between the settings by examining how interactions and affected atmospheres impact on their identities. This book reveals how practitioners perceive themselves differently in such environments and explores the impact this has on their identity as well as the work they carry out with children and families. Leigh?s enquiry and compelling critique into social work, identity and organisations calls for mutual understanding and respect,rather than a culture of blame. 606 $aSocial service 606 $aSociology 606 $aCommunity development 606 $aSocial Work 606 $aSociology 606 $aSocial Work and Community Development 615 0$aSocial service. 615 0$aSociology. 615 0$aCommunity development. 615 14$aSocial Work. 615 24$aSociology. 615 24$aSocial Work and Community Development. 676 $a361.3 700 $aLeigh$b Jadwiga$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01058550 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910252695803321 996 $aBlame, Culture and Child Protection$92500601 997 $aUNINA
