Refugees, Capitalism and the British State: Implications for Social Workers, Volunteers and Activists

By Tom Vickers

Book Overview

Today, in a period of economic crisis, public sector cuts and escalating class struggle, Marxism offers important tools for social workers and service users to understand the structures of oppression they face and devise effective means of resistance. This book uses Marxism's lost insights and reinterprets them in the current context by focussing on one particular section of the international working class - refugees and asylum seekers in Britain.
