englisch The world in which people literally fight for their survival, dignity or identity is a world of conflict and violence. These contradictions will not dissolve, so taking sides also means mobilising resistance, and expressing outrage together with others. The working alliances that are formed on a case-by-case basis have joined forces against an environment in which law is only spoken as law configured by the nation state, in which citizens stand against stateless people.

What is in question here is not only what constitutes social aid, what norms it follows and what image of itself it represents. What is in question is nothing less than the global relationship, in which the medical, care, social work and rescue professions are embedded. What concretely takes place in the social sphere needs clarification. To what concept of the world are the medical, care, social work and rescue professions referred, whose self-image includes paying attention to the well-being of the individual as well as positively shaping the state of the world as a whole?

»La obra se puede entender por eso como una “guía” para un ejercicio de discernimiento del sentido y cometido del trabajo social en la compleja situación de las sociedades contemporáneas. Por su impulso crítico y emancipador sería de desear que el libro encuentre buena resonancia, y no sólo en el ámbito del trabajo social.«
Paulo Stein, Concordia 1/2023, 114
