social work
Contemporary debate on social work in Poland and in Germany focuses on search for new ways of giving help and support to people left outside mainstream society. On the one hand, the complexity and ambivalence of social work's scope shows that social realities may be and are variously perceived; on the other, it poses ever new questions and challenges that as yet defy clear answers. Still, even given its multidimensional and heterogeneous nature, social work always refers to the individual and the fundamental question of the quality of human life. Despite all these difficulties, it is worth pursuing social work, discussing questions that have so far eluded effective remedies even in the most advanced democracies. In the present volume we attempt to engage in just such debate, focusing on broadly defined problems of poverty and social exclusion, with particular emphasis on children and families. Other issues addressed include professionalized help to individuals who need it, economic measures, and social policies to help improve the social functioning of individuals. Also discussed is the international dimension of social work and its impact on shaping further developments in this field.Such reflection on the essence of social work and exchange of thoughts between social scientists representing two communities differing in cultural, economic and political backgrounds seems especially important and valuable to those professionally involved in the discipline.
