Peacebuilding Is Social Work:From Political Science to Social Psychology

For the longest time,peacemaking and peacekeeping were the only post-factum interventions to resolve armed conflicts usually related to a nation-state’s borders or territory.Peacebuilding has its origins in sociology(Galtung,1969;1975)and is used today as a preferred concept in matters of conflict.However,this paper explores why peacebuilding,as the Secretary General of the United Nations advocates in A New Agenda for Peace,must become a nonlinear and contextual process that promotes the prevention of conflict and invites a transformative approach to addressing the linkages between peace,security,and climate.Furthermore,this paper advocates that peacebuilding grounded in social psychology and social anthropology will bring about transformative outcomes as it will build relationships at the community level and become a preventive tool to address incipient tensions within the community.Peacebuilding as social work will benefit the community and lay the necessary foundations for a sustainable future.Social workers are equipped to assess,analyze,and solve problems.Their capacity to do ongoing social diagnosis is a critical tool to prevent skirmishes degenerating into conflicts.Social work could be the much-needed resource to further develop theory and practice that contributes to active peacebuilding.

“Chinese Social Work 2.0” and Its Historical and International Significance

This paper explores the idea of“Chinese social work 2.0”by reviewing the situation,issues,and needs of Chinese social work for further advancement in historical and comparative perspectives.The“10 years of Chinese social work(2006-2016)”vs.a 30-year history of rebuilding social work in the Chinese mainland can be explained with the transition of GPP(general public policy).This helps to understand the various pitfalls and seeming downturns in Chinese social work over the past years and to understand the major decisions of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China(CPC)by understanding the historical backdrop and theoretical rationale of“seeking balance”meaning that China formally parts with its“GDP first”doctrine and withdraws its“economic state”GPP from the historical stage,and“seeking sufficiency”meaning that China continues to base its public policy on economic construction rather than to follow a welfare state GPP.Chinese social work professionals should take advantage of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China(CPC)by highlighting the core issue of“balanced”development and play a leading role in promoting social fairness and justice.The precondition for fulfilling this role is that social work must be placed among the main disciplinary categories(“Group I subject of social science and humanities”)in China with the enhancement of research and faculty competence via well-designed(doctoral)social work education.

Social Work Involved in Targted Poverty Alleviation: From Individual Aid to System Change

The development of social work is to some extent a history of the struggle against poverty. Social work enabled targeted poverty alleviation aims to form a two–way force to implement targeted poverty alleviation policies in a bid to create a new situation featuring top–down policy guidance and bottom–up social engagement. Social work enabled targeted poverty alleviation addresses the bureaucratic defects of government dominance, upgrades the narrow conception of targeted poverty alleviation as individual aid, and pays more attention to the interactions between the poor and environmental elements and the interactions within and between systems from the perspective of eco–system. In practice, this type of poverty alleviation is manifested as social work driven integral specialized poverty alleviation. By organically combining the four systems of subjects, service objects, work processes and implementation results, it advances current targeted poverty alleviation from the mid–shallow level to the deep level. It is expected to fulfill the intrinsic policy objectives of targeted poverty alleviation and explore a supporting system for realizing the modernization of national governance system and capacity in rural areas.

Social Work and Social Welfare from a Multidisciplinary Perspective -- A Challenge for Researchers

Practice Wisdom Knowledge Versus Empirical Science Knowledge:Guiding Historical Social Work Direct Practice

For social workers who are interested in research associated with validating methodology for the amelioration of human problems,or the mastery of intervention models,used in direct practice;definitive consensus,on guidelines,remains elusive.Much has been written in recent years about the necessity of the profession to be guided by either empirical research,which has validated specific interventions,or by the theory,heuristic rules,and the decision‐making schema of experienced practitioners.The debate is not simply limited to clinical practice issues,or factions defending or refuting,a particular theoretical stance.On one hand,social research has in recent years,invalidated some long held practice models,and has modified our understanding of core social problems.Yet,social research is an often difficult and arduous pursuit,which may require some time to make thorough evaluation,as compared to the immediacy of emerging social concerns.This transmission of scholarly research findings takes time and considerable effort to disseminate and gain understanding and acceptance within the practice community even when well received.On the other hand,practitioners serve as the wellspring of observations,which are often translated into models or theory,and frequently become the subject matter of empirical research.However,few in the practice community are encouraged or committed,to systematically review research findings so as to modify practice approaches,which have not been well validated by recent research findings.

精神障碍患者复原力提升的社会工作干预研究

生物医学研究的发展和残疾康复理念的创新为精神障碍患者服务模式的建构指引方向。精神力量的外在培育和内部挖掘成为精神卫生社会工作的服务焦点和研究趋势。复原力作为协调个体与环境互动关系的能力,能够帮助患者在面对创伤困境时进行自我修复和积极改变。本研究遵循复原力理论指导,运用参与式观察法和半结构式访谈法,根据不同的精神障碍患者表现划分出三种复原样态:疾病复原型、家庭复原型和交往复原型。而精神障碍患者类型的不同意味着实践策略的特殊性与精细化。基于此,培育精神障碍患者复原力的社会工作干预可将患者适应创伤事件的能力作为切入点,分别从自我弹性、家庭弹性和人际弹性出发,关注患者的特殊需要,设计复原机制。
