Since its first edition in 2005, Occupational Therapies Without Borders has been a key text in many of the world’s leading occupational therapy education programs. It focuses on how occupational therapists can affect positive societal change through nurturing participation parity and engagement in occupation.

This book comprehensively covers theory, methodology and practice in the context of working with different cultures and geographies. It explores occupational therapy and social class, race, disability, marginality and sexuality from a critical theory perspective, and discusses practical approaches.

The book has been fully revised to reflect emerging concerns for occupational therapy in different and health and social systems globally. It will motivate undergraduate and postgraduate occupational therapy students to explore the transformative potential of their practice.
    • Includes contributions from internationally leading experts across a range of geographical, political and linguistic contexts
    • Presents an international range of innovative ideas, theory and approaches to occupational therapy education and practice
    • Emphasises the importance of critically deconstructing and engaging with the broader context of occupation, particularly around how occupational injustices are shaped through political, economic and historical factors
    • Contributes to a decentralisation of knowledge and a recognition of anglophone education bias, feeding into the current debates about decolonisation and intersectionality in educational curricula
    • New to this edition
    • Updated content on current and future concerns, including Black Lives Matter, queer rights, COVID-19, increasing political polarisation and the rise of populism, and stresses in health and social care systems
    • New content on critical theory and how it can be utilised as a tool towards a more reflexive, politically-engaged occupational therapy
    • New chapters discussing concepts including social class, race, disability, marginality, and sexuality
