Publisher's Synopsis

First published in 1998, this volume features case studies which reflect the central mission of the ICSW (International Council on Social Welfare) to advance social justice, welfare and development. Contributors including practitioners, policy makers and academics have produced articles rich in reflections on real-life projects and experiences, representing countries at various stages of economic and social development. Issues discussed include poverty alleviation, social development trends in late 20th century Asia, and opportunities and education for women and the disabled, along with international priorities for social welfare and development.
