Social Policy and Social Justice
0 - Default Title
Description
In addition, this book addresses the critical contextual components of social policy development and implementation (history, ideology, political economy, and culture), analyzes major substantive areas of policy (e.g., income support, health and behavioral health, social services), and provides content designed to strengthen students' skills in policy analysis, critical thinking, and advocacy.
The fifth edition provides updated examples and data, expanded content on the significance of diversity, equity, and inclusion on the development, substance, and implementation of social policies, and new chapters on immigration and housing policies. It also includes the eligibility requirements to receive the benefits of safety net policies such as Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, TANF, and the ACA. Refreshed pedagogical aids include revised graphics, discussion questions, and ancillary materials.
Social Policy and Social Justice is ideal for undergraduate and graduate social work courses, as well as classes in fields such as nursing, public policy, and political science.
