Synopsis
This second edition has been substantially rewritten and includes new sections on globalized capitalism, modernism and postmodernism, and a new chapter on oppression as the source of social problems and the focus of structural social work., This new edition has been substantially rewritten and includes new sections on globalized capitalism and modernism and postmodernism, and a new chapter on oppression as the source of social problems and the focus of structural social work., The need for an alternative to conventional social work is more obvious today than ever before. Given its acceptance of our present social order and its emphasis on reform of the individual and limited social reform, conventional social work appears powerless to deal with the increasing social problems that have already overloaded a diminishing welfare state. By continuing to recycle mainstream theories of social work practice that do nothing to change the present order, conventional social work actually contributes to the ideological hegemony of patriarchy, classism, racism and other oppressive thought structures. This second edition of Bob Mullaly's Structural Social Work reveals the shortcoming of welfare capitalism as a social system and shows how conventional social work has failed to respond to systemic social problems. Mullaly presents a coherent and consistent theory of progressive social work, with oppression as its central focus, and examines elements of its political practice. It is shown how this practice is carried out within the social agency, outside the agency, and within the personal lives of structural social workers. The new edition has been extensively revised and updated, and includes a new chapter on oppression and social justice.
