Now in its third edition, Human Rights and Social Work explores how
the principles of human rights inform contemporary social work
practice. Jim Ife considers the implications of social work's
traditional Enlightenment heritage and the possibilities of
'post-Enlightenment' practice in a way that is accessible, direct and
engaging. The world has changed significantly since the publication of
the first edition in 2000 and this book is situated firmly within the
context of present-day debates, concerns and crises. Ife covers the
importance of relating human rights to the non-human world, as well as
the consequences of political and ecological uncertainty. Featuring
examples, further readings and a glossary, readers are able to
identify and investigate the important issues and questions arising
from human rights and social work. Now more than ever, Human Rights
and Social Work is an indispensable resource for students, scholars
and practitioners alike.
