Residential Care: Horizons for the New Century provides a deep look into the contemporary issues facing residential and foster care for children. Published by Routledge as part of the Welfare and Society series, this volume brings together new research from across Canada and Europe to provide a global perspective on social welfare. This book is built on both theoretical and empirical foundations, drawing from a wide range of researchers and practitioners. It addresses long-standing problems in the field through comparative international lenses. Readers will find detailed discussions on anti-oppressive practice, the complexities of foster care, and the integration of mainstreaming in education. By examining factors such as ethnic origin, competency levels, and the role of research as a tool in residential care, this work offers a significant contribution to the literature on social welfare. It is an essential resource for those studying or working within the systems that support children and families.
