abstract |
The central approach of this book has been to produce accounts of theory and practice
which focus in a sociologically critical way on what actually gets done well in social
work, why and how it gets done, and with what consequences – a CBP perspective. We
hope that the chapters can help to promote discussion and open up processes of critical
reflection on best practice amongst groups of practitioners, managers, academics and
students. The book has shown that CBP perspectives are concerned with the short and
long-term processes of intervention, as well as with what makes up the components
of practice at each stage of the intervention process, from referral, assessment,
through to longterm work and the organisational structure, culture and processes which
enable (best) practice to go on. In a variety of ways the book has demonstrated the
practicalities of how the organisational context, inter-agency structures and rules
and resources within which social work goes on are drawn upon by practitioners in
their work. The chapters have been situated at the inter-face between organisations
and service user’s lives and have sought to sensitise readers to the legal and procedural
realities of social work while focusing on how they are turned into practice – on
the detail of what can and needs to be said and done in particular situations; on
how social work is performed. |
