Abstract

The article looks at the history and meaning of Rastafarianism, The authors also report the findings of a small study of the views of a group of young Rastafarian probationers and of thirty probation officers, They conclude that social work values and methods require some change if there is to be hope of effective work with Rastas, and that full acceptance of a multi racial Britain is a necessary pre-requisite.
