Anti Oppressive Social Work Theory and Practice Lena Dominelli, Durham University, UK

It is a vital contribution to current debates internationally on the challenges to the integration of refugee and asylum seeking children.’ - Jo Boyden, Director of the Young Lives Research Centre, University of Oxford, UK ‘This is a bold, sophisticated and impressive book which presents a careful and critical analysis of the position of asylum-seeking and refugee children..’ - David Gillborn, Professor of Critical Race Studies in Education, Institute of Education, University of London, UK Refugees are physically and symbolically ‘out of place’ - their presence forces governments to address issues of rights and moral obligations.
