Abstract

The establishment of MA CESS 10 years ago (1994–95) by higher education academics from different European countries and scholarly traditions has also highlighted the role of comparative social research in the social professions in higher education. Whilst it is an established programme in terms of longevity, this short paper reflects upon the gradual development of MA CESS which occurred without losing sight of the ambition to search for solutions to social problems in comparative, intercultural ways and as experienced by social professionals in Europe.

De ontwikkeling van MA CESS door academici uit verschillende Europese landen is inmiddels 10 jaar oud. Een van de rsultaten was, dat vergelijkend onderzoek vanaf nu een vast onderdeel van het curriculum van sociale opleidingen werd. Hoewel MA CESS inmiddels kan bogen op een rijke en brede traditie, richt dit artikel zich specifiek op de toegevoegde waarde van vergelijkend, intercultureel onderzoek voor het oplossen van sociale problemen.
