This article argues for restraint in interpreting the NASW Code of Ethics in ways that assume and enforce an ideological orthodoxy, whether secularist or religious. Orthodox secularism is neither compelling in itself nor required by the Code. It is inappropriate for a professional code of ethics to impose a narrow ideological orthodoxy or party line. |

In this paper, we discuss the relationship between social work and whistleblowing. Our claim is that in spite of whistleblowing being an important dilemma for social workers because it puts to a test the commitment to promote and protect the welfare of their clients, there is little research done on the subject. The paper presents a study to examine the self-reported readiness of undergraduate and graduate students of social work to blow the whistle in protection of their clients' interests.

Teaching social work values and ethics is considered a primary task for social work education. A curriculum innovation is presented as a best practice in socializing students to social work values and ethics as well as graduate education. This article will present the development and rationale for the curriculum transformation, as well as an initial evaluation of the course impact from the students’ voice. |

In social work, discussions of ethics often revolve around liability issues and professional codes. We demonstrate and propose that ethics is a collaborative and dialogical activity for social workers in all settings, and that ethics as activity can be used to build inclusive and just social work. |

The Geneva Conventions and their additional protocols, also known as the International Humanitarian Law, are important international laws consistent with social work values that seek to ameliorate the suffering of the most vulnerable, and protect human dignity during times of armed conflict. Despite increasing awareness of the international nature of social work services and interests, American social workers tend to be relatively uninformed of the basics of international legal instruments. This article outlines the basic aspects of the law and discusses how social workers must be prepared to understand and implement the spirit and letter of international humanitarian conventions designed to help protect people caught in the middle of armed conflict. |
