Discussing the relationship between social work and sociology, this
book explores how the two have become more and more divided, moving
from one single discipline, to two separate, but related, fields.
Both sociology and social work focus on social problems, social
structure, social integration and how individuals respond to and
live within cultural and structural constraints. Today, both
disciplines face the possibility of losing some of their most
important characteristics to individualising trends, the
disappearance of the importance of 'the social' and pressure
towards solely evidence-based knowledge. In addition to casting
light on areas that have been in the shadows of the mainstream
narrative, the contributions to this book will raise new questions,
contributing to continuing discussions between and within each
discipline. This book was originally published as a special issue
of Nordic Social Work Research.
