Colletta Dalikeni's book supports readers who wish to understand the challenges of culturally different asylum-seeking families, framing such issues as the reception and integration of asylum-seeking families in the context of social exclusion, marginalization, mutual cultural incomprehension, health and wellbeing. It aims to contribute to the field of research by addressing the silence in current literature on the perspective of African asylum-seeking families and allowing the voices of those on society's margins to be heard in the creation of knowledge. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 244 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 07 March 2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Peter Lang International Academic Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe issue of migration and asylum-seeking has garnered increasing attention in the broader realm of international human rights and social service provision practices. Positioned within a liberal understanding of human rights and equality frameworks, offering sanctuary to asylum seekers is seen as an act of adhering to supranational and international humanitarian obligations. However, the challenges posed by the culturally influenced needs of some asylum seekers have tested the resilience of host countries' social service institutions, where social work interventions and organizational contexts may still be rooted in the assumptions of European monocultural traditions. These may not be universally appropriate for servicing all cultures. Colletta Dalikeni offers valuable insights to readers who seek to comprehend the complexities faced by culturally diverse asylum-seeking families. These families often engage, or are mandated to engage, with child protection social workers. Dalikeni frames these issues within the context of social exclusion, marginalization, mutual cultural incomprehension, health and well-being. This book possesses a clear agenda. On the one hand, it aims to contribute to the field of research by addressing the silence in current literature on the perspectives of African asylum-seeking families. On the other hand, it empowers the voices of those on society's margins to be heard in the creation of knowledge. Thus, the author employs a progressive approach to develop understanding of child protection issues within the context of asylum-seeking communities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 380g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 229 x 152 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781800796836\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: New ed\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Colletta Dalikeni","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44101102272762,"sku":"9781800796836","price":38.56,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1650621971385_book.jpg?v=1650655764","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/child-protection-social-workers-and-asylumseeking-families-in-ireland-issues-of-culture-race-power-relations-and-mistrust-9781800796836","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
