{"product_id":"indigenous-social-work-around-the-john-coates-9781409407942","title":"Indigenous Social Work around the World: Towards Culturally Relevant Education and Practice","description":"How can mainstream Western social work learn from and in turn help advance indigenous practice? This volume brings together prominent international scholars involved in both Western and indigenous social work across the globe - including James Midgley, Linda Briskman, Alean Al-Krenawi and John R. Graham - to discuss some of the most significant global trends and issues relating to indigenous and cross-cultural social work. The contributors identify ways in which indigenization is shaping professional social work practice and education, and examine how social work can better address diversity in international exchanges and cross-cultural issues within and between countries. Key theoretical, methodological and service issues and challenges in the indigenization of social work are reviewed, including the way in which adaptation can lead to more effective practices within indigenous communities and emerging economies, and how adaptation can provide greater insight into cross-cultural understanding and practice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Coates\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1409407942\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781409407942\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/28\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.14lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.77d","brand":"John Coates","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43989006418175,"sku":"9781409407942","price":62.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a4c77429-10c4-4ce1-88cc-a07063504a2b.jpg?v=1683297388","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/indigenous-social-work-around-the-john-coates-9781409407942","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
