Book excerpt: First published in 1999, this much-needed volume powerfully re-evaluates attitudes to the ‘deserving and ‘undeserving’ poor and aims to investigate social workers’ attitudes and actions towards poverty issues, social service users who have needed financial help and to question whether learning about poverty is an integrated part of social work students’ training and social workers’ in-service training. Monica Dowling has experience of being a social work student and social worker, as well as a social work teacher and researcher. In an age when increasing numbers of undergraduate and postgraduate students are unemployed and living on benefits, Dowling reveals the true picture of the people who end up on the poverty line, reconnecting social work theory and practice.

Book excerpt: This study presents a full account of Sheppard's employment under Oliver Cromwell's Protectorate as well as an examination of his family background and education, his religious commitment to John Owen's party of Independents and his legal philosophy. An appraisal of all Sheppard's legal works, including those written during the Civil War and the Restoration period, illustrates the overlapping concerns with law reform, religion and politics in his generation. Sheppard had impressively consistent goals for the reform of English law and his prescient proposals anticipate the reforms ultimately adopted in the nineteenth century, culminating in the Judicature Acts of 1875-8. Dr Matthews examines the relative importance of Sheppard's books to his generation and to legal literature in general. The study provides a full bibliography of Sheppard's legal and religious works and an appendix of the sources Sheppard used in the composition of his books on the law.

This book was released on 2012-11-15 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Commonwealth is working for the UK however if the organisation is to reach its potential and influence events, the Commonwealth Secretariat needs to "sharpen, strengthen and promote its diplomatic performance". Recently the Commonwealth has appeared less active and less publicly visible. The Government does not appear to have a clear and co-ordinated strategy for its relations with the Commonwealth. The moral authority of the Commonwealth has "too often been undermined by the repressive actions of member governments". The Committee is "disturbed to note the ineffectiveness of the mechanisms for upholding the Commonwealth's values", and expresses support for the Eminent Persons Group's proposal for a Commonwealth Charter. The Committee also says that it is not convinced that member states are making the most of the economic and trading opportunities offered by the Commonwealth. The report welcomes the fact that the Commonwealth continues to attract interest from potential new members, and the report says that there are advantages in greater diversity and an extended global reach for the Commonwealth however the application process should be rigorous. There is also concern at the continuing evidence of serious human rights abuses in Sri Lanka and the Committee urges the Prime Minister to state publicly his unwillingness to attend the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in Colombo meeting unless he receives "convincing and independently-verified evidence of substantial and sustainable improvements in human and political rights in Sri Lanka."

Book excerpt: A significant portion of the population in the Eastern Europe and Central Asia region are either in poor health or disabled. This research shows that the linkages between disability and economic and social outcomes of interest tend to be stronger in transition countries when compared with industrialized countries. Reasons for this trend include the prevalence of a large informal sector in many developing countries, relatively weak targeting performance of social assistance programs (especially in poor transition countries), and unavailability of broad based insurance mechanisms to protect individuals against loss of income due to unexpected illness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows how, with the increasing interaction between jurisdictions spearheaded by globalization, it is gradually becoming impossible to confine transactions to a single jurisdiction. Presented in the form of a compendium of essays by eminent academics and practitioners in the field, it provides a detailed overview of private, international law practice in South Asian nations, addressing contemporary discourse within this knowledge domain. Conflict of laws/private international law arises from the universal acknowledgment that it is difficult to govern human transactions solely by the local law. The research presented addresses the three major threads of private international law – jurisdiction, choice of law and enforcement – within each of the South Asian countries in the areas of family law and commercial law. The research in family law domain includes traditional areas such as marriage, divorce and maintenance, as well as some of the contemporary concerns in this region – inter-country child retrieval, surrogacy, and the country statement on accession to the Hague Conventions related to this domain. In commercial law the research explores the concerns raised with regard to choice of law issues in transnational contracts, and also enforcement of foreign judgment/arbitral awards in the nations of this region.

Book excerpt: "Yes, I am new compared to others. But I feel that I have lived in Leicester forever. I would define myself as European, Somali, Muslim--you know a lot of definitions. In Leicester, no matter your background, whether you are black or white, or Asian, or Christian, or Sikh, people have respect for you." These words were spoken by one of the 300 residents who participated in Muslims in Leicester, a groundbreaking study on the social inclusion of Muslims produced by the Open Society At Home in Europe Project. Muslims in Leicester is the first of 11 city reports to be produced this year as a result of research undertaken on the level and nature of integration of Muslims in eleven cities across Europe (Antwerp, Amsterdam, Berlin, Copenhagen, Hamburg, Leicester, London, Marseille, Paris, Rotterdam, and Stockholm). Through engagement with policymakers and communities, the research examines the political, social, and economic participation of Muslim communities living in the city of Leicester, thriving, diverse city which is predicted to become Europe's first plural city, where there is not ethnic majority group. The Muslims in Leicester report focuses on three of Leicester's 22 wards: Evington, Stoneygate, and Spinney Hills. The report outlines and examines the experiences of Muslims living in these neighborhoods in the areas of education, employment, health, housing, and social protection, citizenship, and political participation, policing and security, media, belonging, identity and interactions. It offers a series of recommendations for local and national authorities and organizations. Leicester gives strong examples of how ethnic an cultural diversity is managed well, and, in fact, turned into an asset for cities.

Book excerpt: On 10 June 2010, ministers announced the launch of a review of child protection, headed by Professor Eileen Munro. This is the first part of that review which sets out Professor Munro's approach and the features of the child protection system that need exploring in detail and that form the focus of subsequent stages of the review. The first aim is to understand why previous well-intentioned reforms have not resulted in the expected level of improvements. Moreover, there is a substantial body of evidence indicating that past reforms are creating new, unforeseen complications. This phase of the review looks at how we can refocus on the child's journey from needing to receiving the right help. In recent history, the child protection system has focused on imposing and meeting managerial targets and regulations, and in doing so has forgotten that the needs of children should be at its core. A dominant theme in the criticisms of current practice is the skew in priorities that has developed between the demands of the management and inspection processes and professionals' ability to exercise their professional judgment and act in the best interests of the child. The review has also made use of evidence that had previously been submitted to Lord Laming's 2009 progress report (HC 330, 2008-09, isbn 9780102958928). The observations made were grouped into three main categories: early intervention, frontline practice and transparency and accountability. Professor Munro notes 'there is much good practice and research for us to build on in our efforts to better protect children and young people.'

Book excerpt: This joint report from the Health Service Ombudsman and the Local Government Ombudsman investigates complaints made by Mr & Mrs Taylor against Buckinghamshire County Council and Oxfordshire & Buckinghamshire Mental Health Partnership Trust. The complaints concern the care provided to their son, Frank, an adult with severe learning disabilities, from June 2001 to September 2003. Frank has no speech; cannot bathe, shave or dress himself; needs assistance to go to the toilet; needs to wear incontinence pads at night or for any lengthy periods spent outdoors. He needs one-to-one attention for 95 per cent of his waking time. The Council took over responsibility for the operation and management of the home in July 2002. In the care home his care needs were never properly assessed, and a number of significant failings in the level of care were identified. Complaints to both organisations were dealt with slowly, and there was confusion about which body should address the separate aspect of the complaints. Frank was removed from the care home, and kept and cared for at home for three months with no external support. The Ombudsmen, acting jointly under the Regulatory Reform (Collaboration etc between Ombudsmen) Order 2007, investigated. They find maladministration causing injustice and anxiety and distress to Frank and his parents. The conditions and care within the care home were unacceptable, and the Council failed to recognise that when taking over management responsibility. Frank's human rights may also have been infringed. The Ombudsmen recommend a payment of £32,000 as remedy for the injustice and distress caused.

Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman and published by . This book was released on 2013-06-03 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mrs L complained about the care that her father, the late Mr M, received at a Wakefield Metropolitan District Council-funded care home, Hazel Garth and from a visiting community nurse funded by NHS Wakefield District Primary Care Trust. Mr M was visited by the nurse on 13 October 2009 to deal with a problem with a catheter. Later that day he became unwell and was taken to hospital, where he was treated for urinary sepsis as well as a grade 4 necrotic (dead tissue) pressure ulcer on his sacrum. He was treated with antibiotics and recovered somewhat, but he died on 23 November 2009. Mrs L was not satisfied with the responses to her complaints to the Council and the Trust, and complained to the Ombudsmen. Their investigations find service failure by both Council and Trust for the care provided in the home and by the nurse. They also found failings in record keeping at the home and maladministration by both Council and Trust in dealing with Mrs L's complaints. The Council and the Trust's successor (Wakefield Clinical Commissioning Group) are instructed, within three months: to write to Mrs L apologising for the service failures and distress caused by the maladministration; to compensate her for the poor complaint handling; and to prepare action plans that describe what they have done to ensure they have learnt the lessons from the failings identified and what they have done or plan to do to avoid a recurrence.
