Gerontological Social Work in Action

Anti-Oppressive Practice with Older Adults, their Families, and Communities

By: Wendy Hulko,Shari Brotman,Louise Stern,Ilyan Ferrer

Gerontological Social Work in Action introduces "anti-oppression gerontology" (AOG), a critical approach to social work with older adults, their families, and communities. AOG principles are applied to direct and indirect practice and a range of topics of relevance to social work practice in the context of a rapidly aging and increasingly diverse world. Weaving together stories from diverse older adults, theories, research, and practical tools, this unique textbook prompts social workers to think differently and push back against oppressive forces. It pays attention to issues, realities, and contexts that are largely absent in social work education and gerontological practice, including important developments in our understanding of age/ism; theories of aging and social work; sites and sectors of health and social care; managing risk and frailty; moral, ethical and legal questions about aging including medical assistance in dying; caregiving; dementia and citizenship; trauma; and much more. This textbook should be considered essential reading for social work students new to or seeking to specialize in aging, as well as those interested in the application of anti-oppressive principles to working with older adults and researching later life.

Intersections

By: Shari L. Brotman,Joseph Josy Lévy

Les intersections entre la culture, le genre et la sexualité retiennent aujourd'hui l'attention des chercheurs qui travaillent sur la diversité sexuelle, une tendance que l'on rencontre dans l'espace québécois et canadien. Plusieurs études ont ainsi porté sur ces enjeux parmi les autochtones et les groupes ethnoculturels. Cet ouvrage collectif, réalisé par des chercheurs, anglophones et francophones, de l'équipe pancanadienne Sexualités, Vulnérabilités et Résilience, présente ainsi un ensemble de travaux qui font le point sur ces questions. Les dimensions théoriques et méthodologiques sont ainsi cernées et des études empiriques, faisant appel à des approches quantitatives et qualitatives, traitent des trajectoires et des identités parmi différentes populations, des problèmes de santé auxquels elles peuvent être confrontées et des variations dans les usages sociosexuels d'Internet. Ce tour d'horizon aide à mieux comprendre la complexité des intersections touchant les identités sexuelles et les dimensions culturelles et suggère des pistes de recherche et d'intervention à développer.
