Handbook of Social Justice in Loss and Grief

The second edition of the Handbook of Social Justice in Loss and Grief has been completely overhauled, with twenty-six new chapters by leaders in the fields of social justice, socially just practice, death, dying, loss, and grief. The chapters include opportunities for learning, reflection, and application to both clinical practice and scholarly discourse in the field. This is a scholarly work of social criticism, richly grounded in personal experience, evocative case studies, and current multicultural and sociocultural theories and research. It is also consistently practical and reflective, challenging readers to think through responses to ethically complex scenarios in which social justice is undermined by radically uneven opportunity structures, hierarchies of voice and privilege, personal and professional power, and unconscious assumptions, at the very junctures when people are most vulnerable—at points of serious illness, confrontations with end-of-life decision making, and in the throes of grief and bereavement.
