Synopsis
This book examines issues of oppression in the context of social work. It discusses the various forms of oppression, including racism, sexism, ethnocentricism, heterocentrism, heterosexism, homophobia, ableism, and religious bigotry. It describes the way these function socially, the dynamics they pr, This diversity practice text teaches students how to work with a broad range of diverse populations, using the "Person-In-Environment" (PIE) theoretical framework. This text can be used in diversity practice courses, courses on working with oppressed populations, and other practice courses (such as advanced practice) that focus on diversity issues. The diverse populations presented in the text are described within an ecological, strengths perspective. The authors' thesis is that, in order to work effectively with diverse populations, it is necessary to take into consideration the complex dynamics of social functioning and social oppression. The "Person-In-Environment" theoretical framework provides a basis for analysis of the social, economic, and political reality of these diverse populations. The text presents an affirmative practice approach, and builds on the available diversity practice literature.

  • Subcultures and Oppression-An Important Book for Social Workers

    Gives an in-depth and philosophical view of social work. I like how each chapter discusses values and beliefs within each subculture.
