Mona B. Livholts: The Body Politics of Glocal Social Work. Essays on the Post-Anthropocentric Condition

This book shapes a situated body politics to re-think, re-write and de-colonise social work as a post-anthropocentric discipline headed towards glocalization, where human and non-human embodiments and agencies are entangled in glocal environmental worlds. The book constitutes key literature for researchers, educators, practitioners, and activists in social work, sociology, architecture, art and creative writing, feminist- and postcolonial studies, human geography and post-anthropocentric philosophy. It offers the readers sustainable ways to re-think and re-write social work towards a glocal- and post-anthropocentric more-than-human worldview.

The Body Politics of Glocal Social Work. Essays on the Post-Anthropocentric Condition is now available at the University of Helsinki Library and can be ordered here.
