|
Policy Making and Human Service Administration will examine the formation and impact of social policy in a variety of areas (such as the pension debate, unemployment insurance reforms, criminal law reform, reform welfare reform and the personal social services). Socio-political, economic and international forces shaping policy-making will be identified. It will provide students with an opportunity to apply classic and current organization theory to social services administration. The areas under examination include: current problems and issues in social service administration; the impact of hierarchical and bureaucratic structures on social work practice with an emphasis on state social work; and the impetus for organizational changes. Theory and research on the role of the professional worker within the state sector, case materials and students' practice experience will form the basis for discussion.
