Research for Social Justice: A Community-Based ApproachAuthor: Adje van de Sande & Karen SchwartzPublished: 2011Published By: Fernwood Publishing, Nova Scotia, CanadaPaperback ISBN: 978-1-55266-441-4Number of Pages: 190
In recognition of the limited amount of social work research literature that is congruent with social work’s social justice values, van de Sande and Schwartz published Research for Social Justice: A Community-Based Approach. As professors at the Carleton University School of Social Work located in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, the authors built on their classroom teaching experiences in order to develop this engaging, illustrative, and practical text. The book provides a concise guide to the structural approach to community-based research aimed toward a target audience of social work students, social work practitioners, and other learners in the social sciences disciplines.
