商品簡介
Social work as a democratically constituted profession committed to human rights is currently facing cross-border encroachments and attacks by right-wing populist movements and governments. With the Bundestag elections in September 2017, the question of the extent to which right-wing populist forces can succeed in influencing the discourse with xenophobic and nationalist arguments has arisen in Germany as well. This book examines how social work can respond effectively to nationalism, exclusion, de-solidarization, and a basic skepticism about science and position itself against this background.
