Synopsis

The current state of social work professional development is characterized by two realities. There is a great deal of traditional social and psychological research being carried out primarily by university-based researchers and by researchers based in institutes, foundations, or social service agencies. Meanwhile, the many social work practitioners continue to look to their own experience for knowledge. This is a continuation of the debate that has persisted since the outset of the profession in the first decade of the twentieth century. This book describes the role of social workers and social organisations in the field of rural development based on case studies carried out in India and abroad.
