Description

Explore the complex relationship between justice and public child care in this academic work by Routledge. This book examines whether justice can be achieved in voluntary cases or if it remains a matter for the courts to decide. By using a multi-disciplinary framework, the author looks at social work through a philosophical and anthropological lens, treating it as a moral practice. The text addresses the rights of both parents and children within two distinct environments: the legal context of care proceedings and the social work setting of voluntary care. Through the examination of forty-six difficult cases, readers can see how decisions are made and implemented in real-world scenarios. This book provides a deep look into the social and legal dimensions of child care, making it a significant resource for those studying the ethics and practices of social work and child protection.
