Download or read book Encyclopedia of Canadian Social Work written by Francis J. Turner and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All of us, as Canadians, are touched throughout our lives by some aspect of social welfare, either as recipients, donors, or taxpayers. But despite the importance of the social network in our country, there has been no single source of information about this critical component of our society. Even professionals in the field of social work or social services have not had a comprehensive volume addressing the myriad features of this critical societal structure. The Encyclopedia of Canadian Social Work fills this need. Over five hundred topics important to Canadian social work are covered, written by a highly diverse group of social workers covering all aspects of the field and all areas of the country. Practitioners, policy makers, academics, social advocates, researchers, students, and administrators present a rich overview of the complexity and diversity of social work and social welfare as it exists in Canada. The principal finding from this project underscores the long-held perception that there is a Canadian model of social work that is unique and stands as a useful model to other countries. The Encyclopedia of Canadian Social Work will be an important source of information, both to Canadians and to interested groups around the world. The Encyclopedia of Canadian Social Work is available in e-book version by subscription or from university and college libraries through the following vendors: Canadian Electronic Library, Ebrary, MyiLibrary, and Netlibrary.

Book excerpt: « Les territoires sont au cœur des politiques sociales. Mais que recouvre cette notion ? Fruit d'un dialogue entre géographes et professionnels de l'action sociale, entre théorie et pratique, ce livre en propose un nouvel éclairage à l'usage des travailleurs sociaux. Pluridisciplinaire, la notion de territoire se situe au croisement de la géographie, de la sociologie, des sciences politiques et sociales. À travers une synthèse théorique, les auteurs proposent des outils d'analyse et de diagnostic permettant d'appréhender la réalité complexe des territoires et de mieux penser le travail social. L'approche systémique est une démarche théorique, méthodologique et pratique, qui donne une grille de lecture capable de saisir la complexité du réel et d'en faire une base de connaissances au service du travail social, l'objectif étant de replacer le territoire au centre des pratiques. De nombreux exemples éclairent ce travail de conceptualisation soucieux d'apporter des réponses aux travailleurs sociaux dans leurs difficultés à appréhender l'espace géographique. Ce livre invite le lecteur à penser l'action à travers un regard de géographe, à ouvrir son champ de réflexion à la notion d'espace, à élargir sa vision du social et permet ainsi de repenser le travail social en déplaçant sa réflexion. Ouvrage de réflexion et manuel pratique, ce livre s'adresse aux travailleurs sociaux, aux apprenants et formateurs en travail social, aux cadres de l'action sociale et médico-sociale et plus largement aux acteurs institutionnels qui pilotent et/ou mettent en œuvre les politiques sociales. »--

Download or read book French and Other Perspectives in Praxiology written by Wojciech W. Gasparski and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 12 in this distinguished series explores current topics in praxiology as studied in France and elsewhere. As is characteristic of contemporary praxiology, contributors both investigate new topics and use new methods to re-examine older approaches.Part 1 is composed of three sections by French scholars. These deal with humans as a subject of action as well as a subject of knowledge. In respecting the particular domains of psychology and praxiology, they demonstrate how they converge to shed light on the human being as an individual or as part of a group. The first section discusses relations between individual action and collective action, while the second section is concerned with relations between the act, objects, and space, and explores work spaces, production spaces, office spaces, and social spaces. The third section examines relations between action and cognition, a domain considered to be little understood in general. Finally, the role of mathematics in decision-making is discussed as a determinate of the praxiological process.The second part is composed of contributions by scholars from Finland, Great Britain, Poland, Portugal, Spain, and the United States. The topics are: how praxiology helps economists understand cooperative actions and related issues of different responsibilities; how and to what an extent university education creates conditions for competitive advantage in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe and how problems of corporate governance are approached in the region; how innovation influences competence in the region of established economy in Spain; and how information systems constitute a multi-agent system. Finally, a formal analysis of praxiological dimensions in light of the fuzzy logic approach is discussed.

Download or read book Erving Goffman Et Le Travail Social written by and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As disciplines become increasingly fragmented and compartmentalized, it is imperative to call to mind the ambiguous yet intertwined connections between social work and the sociological tradition in which Erving Goffman was trained. The authors of this work—social workers, sociologists, anthropologists, political scientists and nurses—open the “ Goffman toolbox ” to offer fresh perspectives on contemporary social work issues. The work focuses on a wide range of topics, including mental health, addiction, care for the elderly or persons with a disability and homelessness. Whether through an epistemological, theoretical, methodological or practical lens, the Goffmanian point of view is worthy of consideration. It suggests a way of observing the effects of institutions and social work categories on individuals. It goes beyond social workers’ normative vision to identify the possibilities and restrictions they face. Finally, it accesses tacit, affective and sometimes unsuspected dimensions of the social question and of helping relationships, rendering visible what is not and intolerable, what is indeed tolerated. The seventeen contributors strive to bridge the gap that developed between the two disciplines as they struggled for institutional recognition.

This book was released on 2023-11-23 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book – "THE HUMANISTIC APPROACH IN PSYCHOLOGY & PSYCHOTHERAPY, SOCIOLOGY & SOCIAL WORK, PEDAGOGY & EDUCATION, MANAGEMENT AND ART: PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT" (Second Edition) – is to achieve an investigation as exhaustive and comprehensive as possible on the presence of the humanistic approach, with an emphasis on the dual-humanistic valences, in a wide range of social and human fields, thus bringing before the reader – as an alternative to the modular, strictly monodisciplinary approaches – a multidisciplinary and complex approach, thus putting almost all the most important social & human disciplines and practices under a single humanistic/ dual-humanistic ”umbrella”, and presented in a single book. The Chapter 1 highlights the diversity of approaches in the social and human domains, focusing on three great approaches: mystical-spiritual and religious, strictly scientific, and humanistic. In Chapter 2, the sources and models of the humanistic orientation are explored, identifying in this sense, with priority, Humanism and philosophical influences such as criticism, ontology, humanistic philosophy, and same oriental-spiritual practices. This chapter highlights also the contribution of phenomenology, existentialism, personalism, gestaltism, neo-Marxism, the Frankfurt School, secular humanism, the human rights movement, postmodernism, feminism, and complex and emergent systems theories. Chapter 3 focuses on the humanistic/ dual-humanistic approach in psychology and psychotherapy.. The basic principles of the humanistic approach to the human psyche were highlighted, as well as the dual-humanistic approach to personality and behavior. Chapter 4 discusses the humanistic/ dual-humanistic orientation in sociology and social work, highlighting the characteristics of social humanism and their different postures in the field of sociology and social work. Chapter 5 brings to the reader's attention the humanistic approach to pedagogy and education, emphasizing the specificity of child/student center education and the characteristics of the dual-humanistic approach in pedagogy/ education. Chapter 6 addresses the issue of humanistic management, emphasizing how this approach generated a significant change in work organizations, focusing on people, employee development and their well-being. Chapter 7 discusses the humanist approach in art, theater and film, highlighting the characteristics of humanistic aesthetics and humanistic theatrology/ filmology. Chapter 8 brings other disciplines into the discourse, such as medicine, politics, religion, technology & science, ecology and economy, highlighting how the humanistic approach influences these fields and brings a dual perspective between person-centeredness and human/ social solidarity. Chapter 9 presents some of the characteristics of the humanistic/dual-humanistic approach to personal development, focusing on the formation of a strong, humane and complete personality. Chapter 10 discusses the humanistic approach, especially through its dual-humanist valence, in community development, emphasizing how it, as philosophy, culture and politics, can contribute to the formation of a strong and humane/ solidary community, with the inclusion of the goals and values of personal development/fulfillment and the happiness of their members. Regarding the usefulness and addressability of this edition, of this book, the design, content and bibliography are made in such a way as to be useful both to the academic community, to students and to teachers, and to the professional community, to psychotherapists, educators, managers, social workers, artists, medical practitioners, politicians, etc. The work being unique in its way because it brings together under the ”umbrella” of a humanistic approach the most important social & human sciences and practices, it is, of course, also addressed to readers interested in such a perspective.

Download or read book Champ social written by Collectif and published by FeniXX. This book was released on 1976-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Champ social" est né de l’exacerbation des multiples contradictions du travail social. Depuis 1968, de nombreux travailleurs sociaux se heurtaient, dans le cadre de leur travail, à une réalité plus ou moins sordide et cherchaient à entraîner dans leur sillage des mouvements de protestation, voire de contestation. Quelques mouvements se sont ainsi créés et ont donné naissance à des bulletins locaux, à des projets de livres blancs destinés à démystifier le travail social. Champ social s’est caractérisé par un soutien permanent aux luttes dont il avait connaissance, et par la diffusion de dossiers sur ces luttes à chaque fois que cela était possible. Il a également poursuivi dans ses colonnes et au sein du comité de rédaction l’analyse amorcée dans les réunions du G.I.T.S. Champ social apparaît comme un moment de l’histoire du travail social. Il ne s’est jamais situé au-delà du débat, il en a été partie prenante.
