Etiske dilemmaer i pædagogisk arbejde er blevet til på baggrund af teoretisk og praktisk arbejde med etiske problemer og dilemmaer i det pædagogiske felt. Bidragyderne har alle beskæftiget sig med etik både i forsknings- og undervisningssammenhæng og i praksis, såvel i Danmark som i resten af Europa.. Som helhed retter bogen sig mod den professionelle hjælper i en dansk sammenhæng, men samtidig har den et internationalt perspektiv – bl.a. med afsæt i et projekt om etik, The European Social Ethics Project.Udover en bred tilgang til spørgsmål om etik har bidragyderne især fokuseret på etiske dilemmaer i pædagogisk arbejde, fordi det er disse, der er specielt udfordrende og urovækkende for den professionelle hjælper i situationer, hvor det er vanskeligt at træffe det ”rigtige” valg. I bogen inddrages case-historier og eksempler, som perspektiverer den teoretiske diskussion.Kapitel 1-5 belyser den professionelle hjælpers etiske dilemmaer sociologisk, historisk, juridisk, og filosofisk.Kapitel 6-10 har en praktisk etisk tilgang, som præsenterer nogle forslag til at arbejde med etiske problemstillinger individuelt og sammen med andre.

We follow Jaxon & Skyler from their first Christmas to this Christmas. So much changes over a three-year span. It begins with heartache, but they don't give up. They push through because there is no Jax without Skye, and there is no Skye without Jax.

Community involvement is now at the centre of the UK government's social inclusion, neighbourhood renewal and health development programmes, resulting in many challenges for managers involved in such work. The bestselling first edition of this book discussed the meaning, principles and application of managing community practice, focusing on the role and skills needed by managers. This will be required if ambitious regeneration and social inclusion programmes are to work in partnership with the active involvement of communities and exploring a wide range of examples from practice. Since the first edition, there has been a perceptible increase in the structured involvement of communities in developing, delivering and evaluating public policies and projects. In this new edition all chapters have been fully updated in the light of recent developments and new case examples have been included to illustrate such changes. A new chapter on The Managers Role in Community Research has been added and a new concluding chapter explores key challenges which need to be addressed. This book is an essential resource for operational and strategic managers in local government, housing, health and other service delivery agencies, social inclusion and community regeneration projects. It will be essential reading for tutors and students on a wide range of undergraduate and Masters courses.
