Our Social Work Imagination

How Social Work Has Not Abandoned Its Mission

Pages 21-37 | Published online: 08 Sep 2008
 

Abstract

The aim of this article is to present the case for social work, the case that the old truths and fighting spirit of an earlier day-our social work imagination-live on, even in the face of uncaring economic forces and resurrected punitiveness. Sustained by an idealism as old as humankind, members of the profession continue to advocate for the poor, the sick, and the oppressed.
