Extract

In the research report Welfare of Migrants (1975), it was noted that all the ethnic groups surveyed were deeply concerned about the problem of “culture conflict”, which was seen as a generation gap in which cultural differences were significant in producing conflict. For the social worker the anxiety, tension and intra-psychic confusion, which this paper attempts to describe, indicates that it offers an important and challenging area for social work concern and involvement.
