Rezensionen

"This groundbreaking work forges tantalizing connections between the socially grounded practice of critical education and the educationally grounded practice of critical social work. A range of politically charged practice settings are analyzed through a variety of provocative theoretical lenses in a volume that is sure to become a reference point for anyone interested in the critical practice of social work." - Stephen Brookfield, John Ireland Endowed Chair, University of St. Thomas, Minneapolis-St. Paul, USA

"This book is a first for social work. It delves into a comprehensive range of theories to ensure that practice is informed by critical pedagogy. A much-needed l resource for educators, students and practitioners in the quest for the application of knowledge that contributes to social change." - Professor Linda Briskman, PhD, Margaret Whitlam Chair of Social Work, Western Sydney University, Australia

"This innovative book brings together high profile international academics, to reflect on critical pedagogies for social work education. It is the first time that is possible to access to a compendium of classic and contemporary theorists and to have a comprehensive overview on how their key pedagogic concepts can be applied to specific aspects of social work education and practice. It is a must-read book for academics that want to prepare social workers to be committed for social change and develop counter-hegemonic practices of resistance and agency." - Professor Annamaria Campanini PhD, President, International Association of Schools of Social Work (IASSW), Bicocca University, Milan, Italy

"Critical scholarship of all kinds is more needed in the world, than ever before. Cementing the link between critical theory and critical pedagogy in social work, this book delivers gold standard analysis and insights on this under-researched and centrally important topic." - Donna Baines, Director and Professor of Social Work, University of British Columbia, Canada

"This volume pulls together critical theories about pedagogy in a new way to strongly inform social work education. It is a great to see this collection of theories which value adds to the specific impact of each. The book provides an exciting, and itself transformative, perspective on how social work education needs to be enlivened, enriched and made more effective in achieving a social change agenda. Compulsory reading for any social worker, and social work educator, who pride themselves on creating a social justice profession." - Professor Jan Fook, PhD FAcSS Professor and Chair, Department of Social Work, University of Vermont, USA

"This volume parades a breathtaking range of thinkers, pioneers of disciplines and activists, some of whom have rarely been made relevant for social work. It not only inspires new, critical approaches to teaching social work, but above all asserts the firm place social work as a discipline can command in today s academic context. Drawing on these contributions, social work teachers and practitioners can look afresh at social work s transformative potential as discipline and profession and confidently break through the many political, managerial and academic constraints that threaten to stifle practice, teaching and research today. A pioneering achievement." - Professsor Walter Lorenz, PhD Charles University, Prague. Formerly Free University of Bolzano, Italy
