This book is essential for professionals and students in social work, child protection, education, and related fields seeking a deeper understanding of systemic issues and innovative approaches within child protection services.

For decades, child protection systems have striven to provide responsive services to vulnerable children and families in the face of the constant change and instability caused by the bureaucratization of child protection. This book lends a strident voice to the argument for a shift beyond the current risk paradigm, towards genuine cultural change.
