The book is divided into six parts as follows:
• Decoloniality, Indigeneity and Radical Theorising
• Feminist Social Work in Fields of Practice
• Academy and Feminist Research
• The Politics of Care
• Allyship, Profeminisms and Queer Perspectives
• Social Movements, Engaging with the Environment and the More-than-Human
The above sections present the diverse feminisms that have influenced social work which provides a range of engaging, informative and thought-provoking chapters. These chapters highlight that feminists still face the battle of working towards ending gender-based violence, discrimination, exploitation and oppression, and therefore it is urgent that we feature the many contemporary examples of activism, resistance, best practice and opportunities to emphasise the different ways feminisms remain central to social work knowledge and practice.
It will be of interest to all scholars and students of social work and related disciplinary areas including the social and human sciences, global and social politics and policy, human rights, environmental and sustainability programmes, citizenship and women’s studies.
