International Social Work is a scholarly refereed journal designed to
extend knowledge and promote communication in the fields of social
development, social welfare and human services. Its major focus is on
international themes in the delivery of services, the functions of social
work professionals and the education of social workers. Social policy and
social service provision provide the context for this focus.

The journal places particular emphasis on articles concerned with
comparative analysis and cross-national research. In each issue you will
find discussions and analyses of trends and issues in social welfare
policy and social work practice, with a scope extending far beyond any
single country. International Social Work will also provide you with
timely thematic issues dedicated to specific international developments
both in the developing and developed world.

In International Social Work you will read about the very latest
developments in social work and social welfare education and training
taking place throughout the world.

Every issue of International Social Work includes an extensive review
section covering recent publications. A subscription to this journal
ensures that you keep up-to-date with the latest books, journals and
reports published on the social services. Recent reviews have covered an
array of subjects within the discipline including criminology, child
sexual abuse, adolescent pregnancies, child labour and health care.
