Diverse political and social events across the world have shaped social work and its education leading to aims and methods that are shared and contested. This book brings together, through 13 interviews and biographies, the lives, experiences and contributions of leading social work educators from Comoros, the Caribbean, India, Mexico, Sweden, Switzerland, the United States and the United Kingdom. Their receipt of IASSW's Katherine Kendall Award recognised that they were at the forefront of establishing and securing social work education during this period of internationalisation. Exploring their aims and priorities, Askeland and Payne draw out a historical and contextual account of how social work education became widely adopted in different national and cultural environments. The Awardees' diverse lives and professional experiences reveal the issues they faced, the paths they travelled and the prospects and threats confronting social work and its education.Bron: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Internationalizing-Social-Work-Education-Insights/dp/1447328701/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1526562367&sr=1-1&keywords=9781447328704 ER -
