Critical perspectives in social work, ethics, applications of feminist postmodernism to social work. My research is aimed at strengthening the relationship between social work and social justice. I am interested in the small, everyday moments of social work practice and education that carry a history marked by conflict between social justice and social control. I am interested in exposing those moments to critical scrutiny so that we can more consciously make decisions about how we wish to create the culture that in turn creates us.
