Human Rights and Social Equality: Challenges for Social Work: Social Work-Social Development Volume I
Sven Hessle
The mission of the social work profession and the development of social policy are rooted in a set of core values and are the foundation of social work?s unique purpose and perspective. Human rights offer a normative base for social work and for the formation of inclusive social policies. This informative and incisively written edited collection brings together experts from around the world to explore the tension between a normative and a political base of social work and social development and, therefore, to address the question: How can social work and social policies contribute in the endeavor to respect, protect and fulfill human rights? This volume will show that there is no straightforward answer to this question owing to the clash between different sociocultural and local conditions and demands for universal human rights.
