Focus on Social Work
The series «Focus on Social Work» publishes Swiss and international contributions on social work with its specific forms of dealing with social problems and supporting everyday coping. The studies included in the series are based on different disciplinary and scientific theoretical approaches and deal with various problem- and practice-fields of social work, professional careers and professional self-image, as well as with different organisational arrangements, professional processes and practices of professional action. Of particular interest to the series are current trends that challenge social work in its methods and self-understanding. Overall, the series provides an up-to-date, critical forum for empirical research and theoretical studies on social work from various disciplines.
