Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to explaine different societal processes, and concepts and organisation of social welfare in Europe since 17. century to the end of 19. century considered as prologue to further development of social work professionalisation in the 20. century. Beyond the european perspective and the given time span
Historical research is a way to describe how and where social work originated, how it has evolved over time, and where it stands today. Historical findings are also important to strengthen the identification of social workers with their profession and to anchor the basic values and central goals of the profession. It is one of the key ways with which to enhance the prestige of the social work profession and a ready means to bring it into the public eye.
