Abstract:
One of the outstanding features of capitalist society is its fluidity. What is the orthodoxy today stands a very good chance of being supplanted by a new orthodoxy tomorrow. Similarly, today's problems have every chance of being tomorrow's solutions. Accordingly, individuals and organisations are often faced with situations, contexts and environments which are new and challenging and contain the potential to disrupt existing control structures. Essentially, this contention is at the heart of this piece of work. The following pages will describe and discuss the impact that a 'new orthodoxy' has

Abstract:
This thesis focuses on the redevelopment of two child welfare case management systems used in Australia: Looking After Children (LAC) and Supporting Children and Responding to Families (SCARF). LAC and SCARF are attempts to address the poor outcomes that are widely agreed to be experienced by children in ‘out of home care‘ or ‘in need‘ in their own families. These case management systems are significant attempts to change social work practice. They represent a shift from earlier modes of practice characterised by autonomous professional relationships to more standardised approaches to social w

Children have been shown to respond differently to the hurt that they suffer at the hands of others. Some of these responses involve internalised behaviours (i.e., repression of feelings, bodily symptoms, etc.); whilst others hurt manifest as externalised behaviours, such as physical attacks on others. These may include sexualised behaviours. The latter is particularly common amongst (but not restricted to) children who have been sexually abused (The American Psychological Association, 2001).
