The book begins by discussing how social problems are constructed. After an analysis of social welfare policy, it's purposed and functions, a unique policy model bolsters the text's overarching progressive narrative. Through this model, students learn how five key social forces -- ideology, politics, history, economics, and social movements -- interact both to create and to change the social welfare system. By applying this model to five critical social welfare policy issues, the text demonstrates to students that every kind of social work practice embodies a social welfare policy.
