dc.descriptionThe book starts out, in Chapter 1, by posing the question ‘Postmodernity: the End of Social Work?’ The following chapters examine both historic and contemporary paradigms of social work. Three chapters are devoted to historic paradigms. Chapter 2 reviews the Victorian origins of social work in voluntary organisations and active citizenship. Chapter 3 charts the development of reformist practice in the welfare state. Chapter 4 focuses on radical social work. The remaining three chapters examine contemporary paradigms of social work in response to social exclusion (Chapter 5), the renaissance of civil society (Chapter 6) and multiculturalism, feminism and anti-oppressive practice (Chapter 7). The conclusion (Chapter 8) examines the options facing social work in the twenty-first century and argues the case for a civic model of social work based upon the pursuit of social justice in an inclusive society-
