dc.description.abstract | As neoliberalisation and other global disruptions change the understanding of human rights and social justice for social workers, how are protests organised by marginalised groups against social welfare and public health regimes understood and participated, or even resisted, by social workers? Although there is a vast literature on protest and community organising in the social work tradition, there is less exploration of marginalised groups organising against the systems in which social workers are employed, thereby leading to dilemmas for social workers. Hence, more knowledge is necessary about social workers’ capability to respond to such protests. Using collective action and social movement theories, this paper introduces a conceptual framework in order to identify key factors and variables when marginalised groups organise against social welfare and public health regimes and social workers are involved. The conceptual framework concerns social workers’ value negotiation of human rights and social justice principles, collective action framing, ethical decision-making, and ultimately, the thought process behind a social worker’s response to collective actions against social welfare and public health regimes. | en |
dc.description.abstract | Nyliberalisme og andre globale utfordringer endrer forståelsen av menneskerettigheter og sosial rettferdighet for sosialarbeidere. Hvordan blir protest fra marginaliserte grupper mot velferds- eller folkehelseregimer forstått og deltatt i - eller også motarbeidet - av sosialarbeidere? Tross omfattende litteratur om protest og samfunnsarbeid i sosialt arbeid, er marginaliserte grupper som organiserer seg mot systemene sosialarbeidere er ansatt i – og dilemmaene dette fører til for sosialarbeidere – lite utforsket. Derfor er det behov for mer kunnskap om sosialarbeideres muligheter til å svare på slike protester. Artikkelen bygger på teorier om sosiale bevegelser og kollektiv handling, og introduserer et begrepsmessig rammeverk for å identifisere sentrale faktorer og variabler når marginaliserte grupper organiserer seg mot velferd- og folkehelseregimer, der sosialarbeidere er involvert. Rammeverket omfatter sosialarbeidernes verdiforhandlinger knyttet til menneskerettigheter og prinsipper for sosial rettferdighet, forståelsesrammer etiske beslutningsprosesser, og til syvende og sist, tankeprosessen bak en sosialarbeiders respons på kollektive handlinger mot velferds- og folkehelseregimer. | en |
