Public ISBD [article]  inThe british journal of social work > 8, vol. 36 (déc. 2006) . - pp. 1289-1307 Titre : Mission Impossible? Critical Practice in Social Work Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Paul Stepney, Auteur Editeur : Oxford : Oxford university press - GB - Oxford Année de publication : 2006 Article en page(s) : pp. 1289-1307 Langues : Français (fre) Catégories : Cardijn Critique # Pratique sociale # Travail social Mots-clés : Travail social  Critique  Pratique sociale Résumé : "In recent years, the capacity of social work to be a force for progressive policy and social change has been significantly eroded. Social work in the UK has been re-branded and reshaped within New Labour’s modernized welfare state, only to become politically compromised and compliant: ‘the dog that didn’t bark’ even when its soul appeared to be stripped out. This article offers a response to this predicament informed by a structural modernist analysis revitalized by elements of critical postmodernism (Fook, 2002). Without wishing to offer any definitive prescriptions, the concept of critical practice is worthy of consideration, as it offers the potential for combining the role of protection with prevention whilst embodying possibilities for critical reflection and change. This became the focus of a recent conference organized around the theme of celebrating social work (Torfaen, 2002). Further, it offers practitioners a means for critical engagement with the issues that lie at the root of injustice and exclusion, to develop a more emancipatory approach, whilst resisting pressures for more enforcement and control."
