Det offentliga sociala arbetet befinner sig i dag i ett tillstånd som innebär att det relationellt mänskliga, strukturella, förebyggande och lokalt förankrade sociala arbetet inte ges tid eller plats. Ett sådant offentligt socialt arbete får svårt att bidra till social förändring. Bokens författare, både forskare och praktiker, värnar ett visionärt socialt arbete som bygger på värderingar om social rättvisa och mänskliga rättigheter snarare än en organisering som bygger på värderingar om effektivisering, ekonomisering, individualisering och svenskhet. Socialt arbete - rörelse, motstånd, förändring diskuterar, ur olika perspektiv, hur viktigt det är med ett kritiskt socialt arbete i ett sammanhang där människor i stor utsträckning görs till utgiftsposter, mätvärden eller invandrare. Ett annat socialt arbete är möjligt! Boken är lämplig för studenter i socialt arbete, verksamma socialarbetare, politiker och andra som intresserar sig för möjligheten att genom socialt arbete åstadkomma hållbar förändring.

How have three decades of neoliberalism affected the Nordic welfare states as well as the organisation, education and practices of social work in those countries?During recent decades the welfare states of Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden have gone through dramatic changes infl uenced by the political triumph of neoliberalism. This has led to both the electoral success of extreme right and mainstream neoliberal parties, and to the neoliberal ideological transformations of social democratic parties. The neoliberal doctrine of making governance cheaper has thus been made the focus of governance and has led to increased marginalisation and social problems.This is the first book to comparatively explore the role of neoliberal reforms on social work and social policy across the Nordic welfare states. The richly theoretical and empirical chapters explore and illustrate the consequences of the dominance of neoliberal policies and provide an analysis of the effects of globalisation, glocalisation, welfare nationalism, symbolic violence and forced migration. The book provides valuable insights into the shortcomings of retreating welfare states in a time of increasing glocal social problems.Neoliberalism, Nordic Welfare States and Social Work should be considered essential reading for critical social work education. Students, scholars, educators and researchers of Nordic countries and beyond have much to learn from this book.
