Exploring the current and historical tensions between liberal capitalism and indigenous models of family life, Ian Hyslop argues for a new model of child protection in Aotearoa New Zealand and other parts of the Anglophone world. He puts forward the case that child safety can only be sustainably advanced by policy initiatives which promote social and economic equality and from practice which takes meaningful account of the complex relationship between economic circumstances and the lived realities of service users.
Ian Kelvin Hyslop is a senior lecturer in Counselling, Human Services and Social Work at the University of Auckland, New Zealand. He worked in statutory child protection for 20 years of his working life and is passionate about aligning social work practice with the pursuit of social justice.
