BOOK REVIEW
Engaging With Social Work: A Critical Introduction
1. Main theories and concepts of the book

It is highlighted by the author that the social work establishment is mainly a conservative understanding concerning the social work that is highly dominant in a lot of welfare systems at present.

Furthermore, it is described that critical social work has a vibrant and also longstanding history, and the word critical is used a lot of times with different interpretations and meanings. Secondly, the concept of marginalization under the critical social work was introduced that stated that it’s a procedure in terms of pushing something or an individual toward the margins of the society as much as possible. Thirdly, another main concept that is used in this book is about oppression and it can be highlighted as one of the most powerful domination by the groups in some of the ways by which the rights and also the opportunities are restricted toward the resources.
