Book Description
Les travailleurs sociaux, dans l'exercice de leur profession, sont en permanence confrontés aux différences culturelles. Dans la relation d'aide, les objectifs qu'ils peuvent fixer, les moyens qu'ils mettent en œuvre, l'évaluation qu'ils font de leurs interventions sont en général - beaucoup plus qu'ils ne le pensent- marqués par leur propre culture. Il en va de même des usagers de leurs services. Mais également des institutions, dont la culture peut être en tension avec celle des agents présents sur le terrain. Les tiraillements sont donc nombreux et peuvent conduire à des situations embarrassantes, où l'improvisation et la confusion sont courantes. Pour arriver, au bénéfice de tous, à une plus grande efficacité des interventions, il est utile de promouvoir un véritable dialogue interculturel. Celui-ci passe d'abord, pour le travailleur social, par un effort de connaissance de sa propre culture, puis par une démarche de compréhension des cultures auxquelles il est confronté. Cet ouvrage propose d'explorer les conditions d'établissement d'un tel dialogue, à travers l'analyse de situations et de questions souvent soulevées par les différences culturelles entre le professionnel d'un service social, son institution et ses interlocuteurs originaires d'autres sphères culturelles. Un essai qui offre des clefs de compréhension essentielles aux travailleurs sociaux confrontés à des situations interculturelles et qui ouvre des perspectives professionnelles et humanistes.

Transnational Social Work and Social Welfare
Author: Beatrix Schwarzer
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317431197
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 307
Book Description
The underlying frame of social work is the nation state, and it is from within the state that welfare strategies and social policies are devised and implemented. However, post-colonialism, globalisation, migration and the associated implications for human rights, social justice and social welfare policies contest the idea of a clearly defined space for social work and present new challenges for researchers and practitioners. Transnational Social Work and Social Welfare argues for the increased importance of the transnational perspective in social work theory and practice. The book challenges the idea of the nation state as a given entity and argues that globalization and an increasing number of people crossing borders must have an impact on the theories and strategies of social work. The international contributors are critical of a restricted focus on a geographically defined space and the impact on work with clients. With cases covering China, France, India, UK, Germany, Malaysia, Israel, Turkey, the book highlights the challenges as well as the opportunities this new perspective can open up for theories and strategies in social work. It will be of interest to students, researchers and social workers interested in migration, social care, poverty and cultural competency in health and social care.

Researching Sex and Sexualities
Author: Charlotte Morris
Publisher: Zed Books Ltd.
ISBN: 1786993228
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 293
Book Description
Sexuality is a complex and multifaceted domain – encompassing bodily, contextual and subjective experiences that resist ready categorisation. To claim the sexual as a viable research object therefore raises a number of important methodological questions: what is it possible to know about experiences, practices and perceptions of sex and sexualities? What approaches might help or hinder our efforts to probe such experiences? This collection explores the creative, personal and contextual parameters involved in researching sexuality, cutting across disciplinary boundaries and drawing on case studies from a variety of countries and contexts. Combining a wide range of expertise, its contributors address such key areas as pornography, sex work, intersectionality and LGBT perspectives. The contributors also share their own experiences of researching sexuality within contrasting disciplines, as well as interrogating how the sexual identities of researchers themselves can relate to, and inform, their work. The result is a unique and diverse collection that combines practical insights on field work with novel theoretical reflections.

Politics of Interculturality
Author: Fred Dervin
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1443834149
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 230
Book Description
Politics of Interculturality fulfills the need for a thorough and critical evaluation of the notion of interculturality. Taking institutional and educational discourses on the ‘intercultural’ as its main focus, the volume captures vigorous debates currently underway across four continents – the Americas, Europe, Asia and Oceania. The volume’s prominent and emerging scholars all agree that change is needed in the way interculturality is used and conceived, especially at a time when the ‘Other’ is an increasing issue of social concerns and political debates. The authors break with tradition by teasing out the hidden assumptions and implications of interculturality – making explicit the implicit presence of the tired old notion of ‘culture’. They also look to establish new ways of engaging with interculturality. The book will be of substantial interest to a wide range of readers who are interested in international communication, education, migration studies, critical race studies, cultural studies, anthropology, linguistics and business. Undergraduates and novice researchers will also find invaluable advice on how to research politics of interculturality.
