Features: In recent years, China has experienced significant changes in its economy, politics, and society, and social work education has also developed rapidly. In the context of rapid social transformation, increasing social problems, and a growing demand for social work, how social work education can respond to societal needs and promote its own development has become a crucial issue to discuss. This collection of essays is a record of the reflections on such issues from the 2003 Annual Meeting of the Chinese Association for Social Work Education and the 2004 Social Work Development Strategy Symposium. The essays in this book were selected from the papers presented at these two conferences and reflect the main viewpoints of the meetings. They are now compiled and published to serve readers who are interested in Chinese social work and social work education. Additionally, this collection also documents the scholars' thoughts on the aforementioned issues.
