Social Work at the Level of International Comparison : Examples from Iraqi-Kurdistan and Germany

The book opens up the possibility to deal with international social work theoretically and practically, using the example of a regionthat is in a pioneering phase in the teaching of social work and at the same time is in a highly explosive situation in global politics. The socio-political challenges such as violence, traumatisation, (Islamic) fundamentalism, ethnicisation, changed gender relations, flight and migration are forcing the necessity of a professional examination of social work as a human rights profession.
