Ecology and Social Work cover

A new direction for policy and action is outlined in this reconsideration of the theoretical framework and application of social work. A holistic, inclusive vision of social work is presented to usher in a change from a self-centered, anticollectivist paradigm to a mutually beneficial, community-focused worldview. Criticized are the assumptions, values, and beliefs that have guided the dominant worldview`s support of environmental devastation. Concerns for sustainability, social justice, and global consciousness guide this revision of social work.
