SOCIAL WORK, SOCIAL WELFARE, AND SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT IN NIGERIA: A POSTCOLONIAL PERSPECTIVE

In: Social work: a professional journal for the social worker = Maatskaplike werk, Band 60, Heft 2

Abstract

The lack of African social work literature and an overreliance on Western literature have led to calls for African scholars to produce rich social work texts to support Africa's decolonisation agenda. In Social Work, Social Welfare, and Social Development in Nigeria: A Postcolonial Perspective, Mel Gray and Solomon Ahmadasun offer a key text on social work in Nigeria.
