Download or read book The State as Parent written by Joe Hudson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thirty-five chapters in this book are edited versions of papers presented at the Advanced Research Workshop, State Intervention on Behalf of Children and Youth, which took place in Maratea, Italy, February 20-24, 1989. The Workshop was attended by leading child welfare researchers from most of the Western countries. Represented were scholars and practitioners from disciplines as diverse as law, social work, neurology, economics, political science, education, psychology, and psychiatry. This variety of disciplines considerably enriched the discussions at the Workshop and is reflected in a set of interesting and, we believe, potentially useful research papers. This book is divided into four sections, each dealing with dominant themes of state intervention. The first section deals with research on organizing for state intervention and related ways of providing accountability. The second section deals with research on young persons in conflict with the law, the third with research on child abuse and the final section with research on children in care. Many of the matters addressed in these papers relate to more than one of the topical theme headings and, therefore, might well have been located in different sections of the volume. Each section is introduced by an introductory statement that provides an overview of the papers and issues addressed, and suggests an agenda of research work to be undertaken. These introductions are based largely on workshop discussions and do not necessarily represent the views of their identified authors.
Book Synopsis Developing Neighbourhood Support and Child Protection Strategies by : Norma Baldwin
Download or read book Developing Neighbourhood Support and Child Protection Strategies written by Norma Baldwin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published in 1998, the book provides a useful contribution to current debates on social exclusion, the regeneration of communities and the refocusing of crisis driven child protection services to family support and the prevention of harm. It stresses the need for interagency strategies of: - neighbourhood and family support - action with young people for a safer environment - principles of partnership with communities - positive action to build on the strengths of families and communities, drawing on their own resources and expertise The detailed account of work to develop such strategies in one neighbourhood will be of value to policy makers, managers and practitioners. The book gives an overview of conditions associated with harm and abuse of children and approaches which can be successful in preventing harm. It documents experience and views of parents - mainly mothers - attempting to bring up their children in health and safety in a severely disadvantaged area. It argues for practical recognition of the links between disadvantage and individual harm, and the need for community development approaches to improve the life chances of children and families.

Book excerpt: Developed within the context of the expansion of the Canadian welfare state in the years following the Great Depression, the present organization of Canadian health care delivery is now in serious need of reform. This book documents the causes and effects of changes made in this century to Canada's health care policy. Particular emphasis is placed on the decades following 1940, the years in which Canada moved away from an individualistic entrepreneurial medical care system, first toward a collectivist biomedical model and then to a social model for health care.

Book Synopsis A Time for Action! by : Robert Doyle
Download or read book A Time for Action! written by Robert Doyle and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main focus of the research reported was to examine access to mainstream non-governmental health and social services organizations in Metropolitan Toronto for members of diverse cultural and racial groups, from the perspective of organizations providing direct services. The research focuses on those aspects of the health and social services system that provide entry, reception intake, and case management functions that must be carried out before the actual provision or delivery of services. The research approach included a survey of mainstream organizations and key informants, informal discussions with consumers, focus groups, a funding policy review, and case studies of innovations. Perceptions from respondents were obtained regarding barriers to access (information/awareness, physical/geographic, cultural, administrative, and cost barriers) and approaches and strategies to improve access. The four case studies involved organizations that have taken leadership in different areas of work to improve access to members of minority groups. Appendices include interview guides and survey forms.

Book Synopsis Co-Production and Co-Creation by : Taco Brandsen
Download or read book Co-Production and Co-Creation written by Taco Brandsen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-15 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Co-production and co-creation occur when citizens participate actively in delivering and designing the services they receive. It has come increasingly onto the agenda of policymakers, as interest in citizen participation has more generally soared. Expectations are high and it is regarded as a possible solution to the public sector’s decreased legitimacy and dwindling resources, by accessing more of society’s capacities. In addition, it is seen as part of a more general drive to reinvigorate voluntary participation and strengthen social cohesion in an increasingly fragmented and individualized society. "Co-Production and Co-Creation: Engaging Citizens in Public Services" offers a systematic and comprehensive theoretical and empirical examination of the concepts of co-production and co-creation and their application in practice. It shows the latest state of knowledge on the topic and will be of interest both to students at an advanced level, academics and reflective practitioners. It addresses the topics with regard to co-production and co-creation and will be of interest to researchers, academics, policymakers, and students in the fields of public administration, business administration, economics, political science, public management, political science service management, sociology and voluntary sector studies.
Book Synopsis The Australian Policy Handbook by : Catherine Althaus
Download or read book The Australian Policy Handbook written by Catherine Althaus and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-21 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The seventh edition of this classic handbook on the policy process is fully updated, featuring new material on policy making amid local and global disruption, the contestable nature of modern policy advice, commissioning and contracting, public engagement and policy success and failure. The Australian Policy Handbook shows how public policy permeates every aspect of our lives. It is the stuff of government, justifying taxes, driving legislation and shaping our social services. Public policy gives us roads, railways and airports, emergency services, justice, education and health services, defence, industry development and natural resource management. While politicians make the decisions, public servants provide analysis and support for those choices. This updated edition includes new visuals and introduces a series of case studies for the first time. These cases—covering family violence, behavioural economics, justice reinvestment, child protection and more—illustrate the personal and professional challenges of policymaking practice. Drawing on their extensive practical and academic experience, the authors outline the processes used in making public policy. They systematically explain the relationships between political decision makers, public service advisers, community participants and those charged with implementation. The Australian Policy Handbook remains the essential guide for students and practitioners of policy making in Australia.
