Sommario/riassunto

Comment faire barrage au retour des nationalismes réactionnaires en Europe ? Inédite depuis la Seconde Guerre mondiale, leur poussée laisse les partis libéraux dans un état d’hébétude. Quant au socialisme, il connaît l’un des ébranlements les plus profonds de son histoire, lui qui, jusqu’à une date récente, fournissait son assise au camp des progressistes. Foyer de la critique, il est passé du côté de sa cible. Mais c’est alors la critique elle-même qui échoue à s’articuler. Les trois études réunies dans ce livre cherchent à reprendre à la racine le double problème de l’hégémonie nationaliste et de la crise du socialisme. Cette tâche impose d’abord de redéfinir le socialisme dans son irréductibilité aux autres doctrines politiques et courants idéologiques.



Elle oblige ensuite à reprendre le dossier de la contribution des sciences sociales à la politique. Elle conduit enfin à envisager l’avenir de l’Europe à la lumière de deux questions majeures : l’éducation et l’écologie.

Sommario/riassunto

Social work has always been a contested activity and its status as an academic discipline remains uncertain. There is currently renewed interest in the theoretical and research dimensions of social work, at a time when significant changes in the broad social, political and economic context in which practice takes place require a re-evaluation of social work's role and a re-examination of its identity. This timely book brings together leading social work academics to examine the state of social work at the beginning of the 21st century. With their focus on the relationships between research, theory and practice, they reflect critically on the nature of social work as a discipline in higher education and the importance of this to the profession as a whole. The book represents an exploratory conversation among social work academics about the current state and future aspirations of the discipline and the profession. It aims to stimulate wider debate about the dominant constraints and opportunities for social work in the 21st century.
