ReviewsDer seit der Finanzkrise im Jahr 2008 und der seit dem Jahr 2015 zunehmenden Migration zu beobachtende grenzübergreifende Aufstieg des Rechtspopulismus stellt grundlegende Werte und Prinzipien der Sozialen Arbeit wie Integrität, Menschenwürde und soziale Gerechtigkeit infrage. Um mögliche Handelungsansätze zu diskutieren, beschäftigt sich dieser englischsprachige Sammelband mit internationalen Perspektiven der Sozialen Arbeit und der Sozialpolitik auf die rechtspopulistischen Tendenzen.- Soziale Arbeit, 10/2019
