Zur Digitalisierung des Sozialen

It’s important to anticipate how global networking of digital information will completely change the social sphere itself and consequently the whole social arrangement of humanity. Epochal upheavals are not new in the history of mankind. Seemingly independent developments strengthen each other and create a confusing time of transition that still has a clear direction. So it’s not only social work that changes but also its general conditions and ethical principles. After 25 years’ experience of running social businesses, the author of this book describes the most important aspects of this development in an understandable manner which takes into account the variety of professions that exist in social work. His ethical reflections sometimes lead to surprising recommendations.
