Social work ethics : politics, principles and practice

See all formats and editions

This critical introduction to professional ethics for social workers recognizes that social work is largely a state-sponsored activity and therefore poses issues in political theory.

The traditional values and rules of practice ethics are explained using examples.

The critique is followed by a concept of social work and its relationship to the state.

A new approach to practice ethics is developed based on four cardinal principles of respect, justice, citizenship and discipline.
