  1. Aims & Scope Ethics and Social Welfare publishes articles of a critical and reflective nature concerned with the ethical issues surrounding social welfare practice and policy. It has a particular focus on social work (including practice with individuals, families and small groups), social care, youth and community work and related professions.

  2. The aim of the journal is to encourage dialogue and debate across social, intercultural and international boundaries on the serious ethical issues relating to professional interventions into social life. Through this we hope to contribute towards deepening understandings and further ethical practice in the field of social welfare.

  3. The journal welcomes material in a variety of formats, including high quality peer-reviewed academic papers; reflections, debates and commentaries on policy and practice; book reviews and review articles. We actively encourage a diverse range of contributions from academic and field practitioners, voluntary workers, service users, carers and people bringing the perspectives of oppressed groups.

  4. There are three main sections of the journal: • Section One for full-length papers (4-7,000 words). • Section Two, Ethical Issues in Practice, for shorter contributions by practitioners, service users, carers, students and others (750-2,500 words). • Section Three, for Reviews and Commentary
