Book Description
Excerpt from Social Work and Jewish Values: Basic Areas of Consonance and Conflict The Value of Values. Both the profession of social work and the Jewish people of our country are now more concerned than ever before with clarifying what they consider to be their basic goals and the best means of attaining them, that is, defining their values. During the past decade increasing urgency has been expressed by both groups through many speeches and articles on the subject of values, but only in the last two years have there been concerted efforts to deal with the problems the subject entails. In 1957 the Curriculum Study of the Council on Social Work Education held a conference devoted to its special project on values and ethics. In 1958 the National Jewish Welfare Board and National Association of Jewish Center Workers had workshop sessions on Jewish values at their national conventions. This past fall the American Jewish Congress called for a national conference to consider the problem. However disparate they are in other respects, the profession of social work and the Jewish people share this unprecedented concern with values because of the stage of greater maturity each has reached in mid-century America. Social work has made great practical progress in the past three decades both qualitatively (competence and status) and quantitatively (numbers and organization). As is common with changing social institutions, there has not been commensurate ideological development. However, the "cultural lag" has been so pronounced and practical growth so rapid that the profession is now at a juncture where ideological progress is prerequisite to continued growth. As Werner Boehm has pointed out in an article presumably reflecting the majority opinion of those engaged in the curriculum study of which he is director: "No single, widely recognized, or generally accepted statement exists of the aims and purposes of the professional practice of social work...

Book Description
This book shows how a centrally planned philanthropy developed within the London Jewish community in the 19th century, culminating in the establishment and development of the Jewish Board of Guardians. The process involved crucial power relations within the Jewish community and the wider British society. Jewish philanthropy was adapted by the Jewish elite and modified according to contemporary ideologies to become a base for social control of the poor. The cautious approach of the elite towards the poverty both of native Jews and of immigrants dates from the very beginning of the century, and indeed earlier times. The establishment of the Board is set in the context of debates over earlier proposals such as the schemes of Colquhoun and Van Oven, and faudel. Key areas covered in this work include health, employment, loans and housing - all in the context of the massive and burgioning metropolis that was 19th century London. A system of "checks and balances" developed wherby Jewish phila
