ABSTRACT Research has identified an association between poverty and the likelihood of children suffering from abuse. What is less clear is how the experience of living in poverty links to this abuse. This qualitative study investigated individual stories of child abuse and the role of poverty in their lives. Through interpretative phenomenological analysis explanations why children had been abused were elicited from parents and professionals. Poverty as an abstract concept was articulated by parents describing their lived experience, breaking it down into its constituent parts. Social health and environmental contexts and the personal consequences of this emerged from the data. Professionals missed poverty at a macro level by focussing on the micro processes, leading to explanations of the abuse as personal inadequacy rather than systemic issues.
摘要研究发现,贫困与儿童遭受虐待的可能性之间存在关联。不太清楚的是,生活在贫困中的经历如何与这种虐待联系在一起。这项定性研究调查了虐待儿童的个人故事以及贫困在他们生活中的作用。通过解释性现象学分析,从父母和专业人士那里得到了儿童遭受虐待的解释。贫困作为一个抽象的概念,由父母描述他们的生活经历,并将其分解为组成部分。数据显示了社会健康和环境背景以及由此产生的个人后果。专业人员通过关注微观过程,错过了宏观层面的贫困,导致将虐待解释为个人不足,而不是系统性问题。

ABSTRACT The paper aims to describe the specific context of the homeless children’s living environment and to show the consequences that this context has on the sibling relationships of homeless children in Czechia. The text is based on a psychosocial perspective. The context of the space, where homeless children live strongly affects their socialisation. Sibling relationships, which are transformed in such an environment, become increasingly important. Using a qualitative research strategy, we carried out 30 sets of interviews with homeless parents and children (a total of 60 interviews). We found that the environment of homelessness alters sibling roles in the family, reinforces sibling closeness as a compensation for material deprivation, makes it more difficult for children to detach, escalates sibling conflicts, and generally reinforces a certain exclusivity in relationship. The results show that social work and other helping professions should focus on supporting sibling relationships in the homelessness environment.
本文旨在描述无家可归儿童生活环境的具体背景,并展示这种背景对捷克无家可归儿童兄弟姐妹关系的影响。这篇文章是从社会心理角度出发的。无家可归的儿童生活的空间环境强烈地影响着他们的社交活动。在这样的环境中发生变化的兄弟姐妹关系变得越来越重要。采用定性研究策略,我们对无家可归的父母和儿童进行了30组访谈(共60次访谈)。我们发现,无家可归的环境改变了兄弟姐妹在家庭中的角色,加强了兄弟姐妹之间的亲密关系,作为对物质匮乏的补偿,使孩子们更难脱离,加剧了兄弟姐妹之间的冲突,并且通常会加强关系中的某种排他性。结果表明,社会工作和其他帮助专业应该重点支持无家可归者的兄弟姐妹关系。

ABSTRACT Social workers worldwide must be concerned about how to overcome poverty after the COVID-19. The 61st Session of United Nations Commission for Social Development has highlighted decent work as a priority for social workers and social welfare practitioners after de COVID-19. Decent work is a key strategy to overcome poverty in the post-pandemic time. A systematic review of the literature revealed 225 articles from 2020 on this topic. The descriptors were social work, decent work, good work, decent job, good job, decent employment, and good employment. The results obtained allow us to establish some recommendations to address poverty from the perspective of social work, designing intervention strategies to overcome inequalities.
摘要新冠肺炎后,世界各地的社会工作者必须关注如何克服贫困。联合国社会发展委员会第六十一届会议强调,体面工作是新冠肺炎后社会工作者和社会福利工作者的优先事项。体面工作是在疫情后时期克服贫困的一项关键战略。对文献的系统回顾显示,2020年有225篇关于这一主题的文章。描述词是社会工作、体面工作、好工作、体面的工作、好的工作、体面就业和好的就业。所获得的结果使我们能够从社会工作的角度提出一些解决贫困问题的建议,设计克服不平等的干预策略。

ABSTRACT Social work in South Africa is currently engaged in a transformational process to adapt its developmental approach based on the pursuit of social justice. Research has indicated that the values, attitudes, and behaviours of newly qualified social workers is a major determining factor in their pursuit of social justice. Consequently, the study reported here aimed to investigate the above-mentioned as pertaining to the achievement of social justice within client systems. The study, which was of a quantitative, cross-sectional nature, collected responses to a standardised psychometric scale from 108 newly qualified social workers, measuring their values, attitudes, and behaviours regarding social justice. The results reveal that South African-based social workers feel impeded in the work for social justice by inadequate training, skill set, and other obstacles, despite being committed to social justice.
南非的社会工作目前正处于一个转型过程中,以追求社会正义为基础调整其发展方式。研究表明,新合格的社会工作者的价值观、态度和行为是他们追求社会正义的主要决定因素。因此,这里报告的研究旨在调查上述与在客户系统内实现社会正义有关的问题。这项研究是一项定量的、横断面性质的研究,收集了108名新合格的社会工作者对标准化心理测量量表的反应,测量了他们对社会正义的价值观、态度和行为。结果显示,尽管南非社会工作者致力于社会正义,但由于缺乏培训、技能和其他障碍,他们在争取社会正义的工作中感到受到阻碍。

Poverty: social work perspectives 贫困:社会工作视角

The original idea for a Special Issue focusing on poverty stems back several years when it seemed timely to take stock of how continuing austere times were impacting upon service users and the social work profession. Although evidence is mixed due to various financial strategies introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic, in the UK at least the rise in the use by families and individuals of foodbanks and disproportionate experiences of poverty within sections of the community (e.g. Bangladeshi, Pakistani and Black ethnicities in the UK context (Joseph Rowntree Foundation, 2023)) reveal that poverty remains a primary concern for social work (British Association of Social Workers [BASW], 2023). In keeping with the journal aims we requested in the Call for Papers that authors might propose papers considering social justice and social structural aspects of poverty, but also dimensions incorporating emotional and relational lived experiences of poverty. The COVID-19 pandemic interrupted and slowed the process of gathering papers and we wondered whether the impact of poverty and psychosocial restrictions facing practitioners, service users and academics alike, made the subject too present and too overwhelming for authors to consider. However, our focus on psychosocial elements of poverty’s influence broadened as we began to receive papers from writers based in a range of countries, thus indicating how poverty is of ubiquitous concern to social workers in many parts of the world. These papers were more concerned with directly highlighting the role taken by individual social workers, and the professional discipline itself, in driving forward development aims in nations facing much greater challenges than those experienced in relatively wealthy western countries. In finalising the selection of articles for this issue, we felt it important to include some papers addressing this international discourse within social work and the shared concern within the profession regarding the relentless impact of poverty in the lives of many people. In the end, taking an ecological perspective, the papers in this SI range from those with wider, social structural, developmental themes through to medium level themes concerning social work interventions and agencies and to papers which reveal the more personal, lived experiences of poverty and social work’s interaction with these. This SI thus encompasses articles that touch on various aspects of poverty and the many ways in which poverty can negatively influence lived realities across a spectrum of dimensions. While the quantification of poverty is provided in some articles, it was never our intention to only focus on numbers. For decades, there has been a strong focus on the quantitative study of poverty including how to measure an adequate level of income, how to assess wealth, how to count the numbers of people who live in poverty, and for how long. The quantitative study of poverty is important in order to inform strategi
关注贫困的特刊的最初想法可以追溯到几年前,当时似乎是时候评估持续的严峻时期对服务用户和社会工作专业的影响。尽管由于在2019冠状病毒病大流行期间引入了各种财务策略,证据不一,但在英国,至少家庭和个人使用食品银行的人数增加,以及社区某些部分(例如英国背景下的孟加拉国人、巴基斯坦人和黑人种族(Joseph Rowntree Foundation, 2023))的贫困经历不成比例,表明贫困仍然是社会工作的主要关注点(英国社会工作者协会[BASW], 2023)。为了与期刊的目标保持一致,我们在论文征集中要求作者可以提出考虑社会正义和贫困的社会结构方面的论文,但也要考虑贫困的情感和关系生活经历的维度。COVID-19大流行中断并减缓了收集论文的过程,我们想知道从业人员、服务使用者和学者都面临贫困和心理社会限制的影响,是否使这一主题过于现实,难以让作者考虑。然而,当我们开始收到来自一系列国家的作家的论文时,我们对贫困影响的心理社会因素的关注范围扩大了,从而表明贫困是世界许多地方社会工作者普遍关注的问题。这些论文更关注的是直接强调社会工作者个人和专业学科本身在推动发展目标方面所起的作用,这些国家面临着比相对富裕的西方国家更大的挑战。在最终确定本期文章的选择时,我们认为重要的是要包括一些关于社会工作中的国际话语和专业人士对贫困对许多人生活的无情影响的共同关注的论文。最后,从生态学的角度来看,本SI中的论文范围从更广泛的,社会结构的,发展的主题,到关于社会工作干预和机构的中等水平的主题,以及揭示更多个人的,生活的贫困经验和社会工作与这些相互作用的论文。因此,本SI收录的文章涉及贫困的各个方面,以及贫困可能在一系列维度上对生活现实产生负面影响的许多方式。虽然一些文章提供了贫困的量化,但我们从来没有打算只关注数字。几十年来,人们一直非常关注贫困的定量研究,包括如何衡量足够的收入水平,如何评估财富,如何计算生活在贫困中的人数以及贫困的时间。对贫穷进行定量研究是重要的,以便为消除贫穷的战略提供信息,但它只能提供对贫穷情况的部分了解。数字可以揭示保护系统的模式、极端和失败,它们是社会工作者和其他人努力提供关键和可操作响应的基本工具。《社会工作实践杂志》2023,VOL. 37, NO. 5。2,131 - 135 https://doi.org/10.1080/02650533.2023.2233845

ABSTRACT This 2017 study explores social workers’ perspectives on the interaction of UK government discourse, poverty, and social work practice with families since the 2007–08 economic crash. This has continued relevance in today’s economic climate when the number of families in poverty is increasing. This small-scale qualitative study used interviews with social workers undertaking assessments in statutory children and young people’s service in one inner-London borough, analysed using thematic analysis. Conducted for a Social Work Masters dissertation, the study finds social workers hold structural explanations for poverty, and feel themselves to be in conflict with the prevailing individualising poverty discourse. Approaches to financial talk with families risk foreclosing the possibility of open discussion and unintentionally reinforce stigma. The sense of conflict in working within the austerity climate bears an emotional toll on participants.
摘要这项2017年的研究探讨了自2007-2008年经济崩溃以来,社会工作者对英国政府话语、贫困和社会工作实践与家庭互动的看法。在贫困家庭数量不断增加的今天的经济环境中,这一点仍然具有现实意义。这项小规模的定性研究使用了对在伦敦市中心一个行政区进行法定儿童和年轻人服务评估的社会工作者的采访,并使用主题分析进行了分析。这项研究是为一篇社会工作硕士论文而进行的,发现社会工作者对贫困有着结构性的解释,并觉得自己与主流的个性化贫困话语相冲突。与家庭进行财务谈话的方法可能会阻碍公开讨论的可能性,并无意中加剧耻辱感。在紧缩气候下工作的冲突感给参与者带来了情感上的损失。

ABSTRACT The English child protection system continues to be the focus of national commentary in light of several high-profile deaths and the recently published reports from the Review of Children’s Social Care, and the Child Safeguarding Practice Review Panel. Whilst narratives of ‘failure’, ‘betrayal’, and ‘scandalous incompetence’ perpetuate, these forgo consideration of the complexity of child protection work, nor do they acknowledge that during the COVID-19 ‘lockdowns’, social workers remained one of the few professional groups visiting vulnerable families at home. Moreover, of the recent accounts of the lived experience of social workers, these have omitted a specific overview of what it means to be a child protection practitioner. Drawing from an original ethnography of a statutory child protection team and supplemented by follow-up interviews, the article seeks to elucidate the long-standing lived experience of a cohort of child protection social workers. It highlights a ‘tendency’ to be the target of threats and intimidation and identifies other costs in the context of health and personal relationships. The article concludes that these findings could help us better understand child protection workforce instability and the system’s reliance on agency staff – both of which continue to be identified as contributory in child death tragedies.
鉴于几起引人注目的死亡事件以及儿童社会关怀审查和儿童保护实践审查小组最近发表的报告,英国儿童保护制度继续成为全国评论的焦点。虽然“失败”、“背叛”和“可耻的无能”的说法一直存在,但这些说法忽视了儿童保护工作的复杂性,也没有承认,在2019冠状病毒病“封锁”期间,社会工作者仍然是少数几个上门探访弱势家庭的专业团体之一。此外,在最近对社会工作者生活经验的描述中,这些都忽略了对儿童保护从业者意味着什么的具体概述。本文以法定儿童保护团队的原始民族志为基础,辅以后续访谈,试图阐明一群儿童保护社会工作者的长期生活经验。它强调了成为威胁和恐吓目标的"趋势",并确定了在健康和个人关系方面的其他成本。这篇文章的结论是,这些发现可以帮助我们更好地理解儿童保护工作人员的不稳定性和系统对机构工作人员的依赖——这两者都被认为是造成儿童死亡悲剧的原因。

ABSTRACT Public welfare actors struggle with the question how they can guarantee children’s wellbeing. The answer to this question depends on the countries’ perspective concerning its responsibility for the care of its citizens. In the Flemish context, a maximalist child protection logic – with a focus on the realisation of rights – is adopted. In this article, we focus on the so-called ‘bottleneck cases’ and use the case of Zoë as a concrete application of the legislative framework that regulates the bottleneck case system. By analysing the case of Zoë, we show that a maximalist policy discourse that is based on commitment towards complex situations sometimes masks a minimalist policy logic. The issue that prompts itself is that this does not mean that a maximalist practice is not realised, but that it is realised because social practitioners deviate from the policy plans, while pretending ‘as if’ they follow them.
