Challenges to an Ethical-Political Practice: Chilean social work after the dictatorship
Abstract
The study is based on the hypothesis that social work has been dominated by a mercantilist logic of neoliberalism, which was imposed during the civil-military dictatorship in Chile. It analyzes and interprets the historic antecedents of Chilean social work from a critical-hermeneutic perspective. It concludes that education and practice of the discipline require a re-orientation, which should be based on a profound critical historic reflection and based on this, generate the bases for a new ethical-political project to guide the disciplinary and professional workDownloads
