The decline of the grand narratives has led to the trivialization of the social work knowledge base and the rise of pop-sociologistic writing in social work. Historically, social work has stood squarely on the side of the economically disadvantaged, recognizing that economic determinism creates system-victims. Radical dislocations in the social structure have also accounted for the decline of social work. Drastic changes in the world's political and economic structure, through the domination of worldwide corporations, will leave absolutely no viable role for professional social workers. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
