Social policy encompasses the study of social needs, policy development and the administrative arrangements that aim to improve citizen wellbeing and redress disadvantage. In a period of increasing political instability, growing inequality and polarisation, in Australia and globally, social work and human service practitioners are uniquely positioned to partner with governments, policy makers and non-government organisations to respond to these challenges and promote the wellbeing of individuals and communities.

Australian Social Policy and the Human Services introduces readers to the mechanisms of policy development, implementation and evaluation. This edition emphasises the complexity of practice, examining the links and gaps between policy development and implementation and encouraging readers to develop a critical approach to practice. The text now includes an overview of Australia’s political system and has been significantly expanded to cover contemporary issues across several policy domains including changes in labour market structure, homelessness, mental health and disability, child protection and family violence, education policy, Indigenous initiatives, conceptualisations of citizenship and the rights of diverse groups and populations.

THIRD EDITION

Social workers draw on a variety of theoretical perspectives to inform their practice and understand the diverse settings in which they work.

This third edition includes new material on trauma-informed practice and Indigenous practice, as well as enhanced content relating to child protection and family violence, and narrative approaches. This text enables practitioners to develop the skills required to confidently and critically evaluate their work as they respond in complex practice contexts.

Collaboration in the social, health and human services

Organisations in the social, health and human services sectors employ a range of professionals to provide dynamic and quality care to people across their lifespan. Interprofessional Ethics recognises that multidisciplinary teams exist in many health, government and community-based workplaces. It explores the ethical frameworks, policies and procedures of professional practice, in order to equip readers with the knowledge and skills to work within collaborative teams, and to better understand and consider the perspectives, approaches and values of others. Chapters feature reflection points, learning objectives, links to further readings and reflections from practitioners on their professional experiences. As the professional practice context becomes more complex, there is an increasing need for practitioners to be skilled in ethical decision making. Interprofessional Ethics provides a sound introduction to moral philosophy and professional regulation, ethical decision-making, activism, e-Professionalism, and personal and professional responsibilities. www.cambridge.org/academic
