Ambivalences of Inclusion in Society and Social Work: Research-Based Reflections in Four European Countries: European Social Work Education and Practice
Editat de Stephan Bundschuh, Maria José Freitas, Càndid Palacín Bartrolí, Nino Žganecen Limba Engleză Hardback – 29 oct 2020
The development towards an inclusive society is a subject of ongoing discussion in Europe. How the subject is addressed, through an examination of political and social characteristics, differs significantly by country. Each country-specific chapter includes evidence-based reflections on inclusive society and the role of social work:
- In The Netherlands, there is evidence of a top-down process implementing inclusive social policy and social work principles through the self-proclaimed ‘participationsociety’.
- In Spain, the process to inclusion is accompanied by the third sector often replacing governmental responsibilities, namely through the bottom-up activities of non-governmental organizations in social work.
- In Croatia, inclusion is a state initiative in transitioning society and an academic approach to deinstitutionalising social work.
- In Germany, inclusion is discussed in social systems theory and the reform of school systems. In the migration discourse it was introduced as a less-loaded alternative to integration.
