Boys’ Stories of Their Time in a Residential School
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-138-59870-6 (ISBN)
It describes the boys’ trajectories through life, as well as detailing the rhythms, rituals, routines, and relationships that existed in the school. While the focus is on the (former) boys’ experiences, these are augmented by interview material from staff members, including religious Brothers, who worked in the school.
Together, these different perspectives provide unique insights into an area of social work history that is ill-served by existing accounts, making the book required reading for all scholars and students of social work; social and oral history; narrative sociology; criminology and desistance and social policy.
Mark Smith is Professor of Social Work at the University of Dundee, Scotland. Prior to that he worked at the University of Strathclyde, where he set up the first Master's programme in Residential Child Care in the UK, and at the University of Edinburgh, where, latterly, he served as Head of Social Work. Before entering academia, he worked in and managed residential care establishments for almost 20 years. He has published widely on residential child care and on social work more generally. He and his family maintain direct involvement in child care through fostering.
