520			_aBy using human rights as a guidepost, social workers can help create social welfare policies that better serve societal needs. Bringing together essays from a diverse range of authors, the editor demonstrates how approaching social work from a human rights perspective can profoundly affect legislation, resource management, and enforcement of policies. Topics include the reconciliation of cultural relativism with universal human rights; the debate over whether human rights truly promote economic and social development or simply allow economically developed societies to exploit underdeveloped countries; the role of gender in the practice of human rights; the tendency to promote political and civil rights over economic and social rights; and the connection between the social work and legal professions.
