Zusammenfassung

Despite the relationship between social welfare policy and social work practice, the authors (both trained as social welfare historians) argue that few students have a good grasp of how to analyze and evaluate the policies that will affect their work, their clients' lives, and the larger community.

The Policy-Based Profession by Philip R Popple

This social welfare policy text, written specifically for social work, shows students the crucial connection between social policy and the everyday practice of social work. The text provides students with a process for analyzing policies that will help them as they enter the profession. It offers a detailed foundation for policy analysis, including chapters on historical policy analysis, social/economic analysis, and political analysis. The text includes chapters on social policy as it affects most of the major areas of social work practice: poverty, aging, mental health, and child welfare. This edition brings students up-to-date on the latest developments in welfare reform, managed care, the campaign to restructure Social Security, and the use of family preservation as an approach to child protection.
