Critical scholarship and organizing have helped to name and examine the realities of carceral social work as a form of \"soft policing.\" For radical social work, abolition moves beyond critique to the politics of possibility.\u003cbr\u003e offers an orientation to abolitionist theory for social workers and explores the tensions and paradoxes in realizing abolitionist practice in social work-a necessary intervention in contemporary discourse regarding carceral social work, and a compass for recentering this work through the lens of abolition, transformative justice, and collective care.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46882728247454,"sku":"ADS-9798888901366","price":89.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9798888901366.jpg?v=1779861702","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9798888901366","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
