Unlike social policy that started with the post-war idea of a welfare state in the mid-20th century, social work traces its roots to individual casework pioneered by the Charity Organization Society (COS), early social administration including state-wide poverty relief (an advocacy effort of the COS but with deep roots in the English Poor Laws of the 17th century), and social action emphasizing political activities to improve social conditions (originating from the Settlement House Movement which began in the 1880s). The development of social work is historically intertwined with that of public welfare, philanthropy, and charity and is an inherently international subject. This conception is broader than international social work as a discrete field of professional practice, which crosses geopolitical borders and all levels of social and economic organizations with a focus on development. However, each nation has a story of its own in terms of professionalization of social work in the evolution of public welfare and philanthropic/charitable undertaking within its particular economic, political, social, and cultural settings. A wide-ranging and in-depth study of various (especially non-Western) country cases is essential to an adequate, comprehensive understanding of the social work profession, which is also a basic requirement of its value of diversity. China is undoubtedly an important case with the largest population on earth. Its also unique in view of so-called Chinese characteristics which are sometimes fundamentally different from other (particularly Western) societies. Its even intriguing given the countrys lengthy, complex history and its recent, rapid rise to a global superpower with a claim of national goals and core values that seem to be rather considerable to social work as a helping profession. Therefore, any significant lessons learned from the Chinese experiences would help with a better international understanding and further advancement of social work and public welfare at a global scale. 001476506 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed September 12, 2023). 001476506 650_0 $$aSocial service$$zChina. 001476506 650_0 $$aSocial service$$vCross-cultural studies. 001476506 650_0 $$aMental health$$zChina. 001476506 650_0 $$aMental health$$vCross-cultural studies. 001476506 650_0 $$aSocial policy$$vCross-cultural studies. 001476506 650_6 $$aService social$$zChine. 001476506 650_6 $$aService social$$vÉtudes transculturelles. 001476506 651_0 $$aChina$$xSocial policy. 001476506 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001476506 7001_ $$aChen, Sheying. 001476506 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aChen, Sheying$$tSocial Work, Mental Health, and Public Policy in Diverse Contexts$$dCham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2023$$z9783031363115 001476506 830_0 $$aInternational perspectives on social policy, administration, and practice. 001476506 852__ $$bebk 001476506 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-36312-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001476506 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1476506$$pGLOBAL_SET 001476506 980__ $$aBIB 001476506 980__ $$aEBOOK 001476506 982__ $$aEbook 001476506 983__ $$aOnline 001476506 994__ $$a92$$bISE
