Overview

The volume provides a theoretically grounded and practice-oriented perspective on socio-technical transformation processes in the field of social work. It focuses on the potentials for inclusion as well as the dynamics of exclusion that arise from these socio-technical transformation processes. Although the analytical focus is committed to the paradigms of social work, these analyses are relevant far beyond the field of social work: As a form of ethical practice, social work offers the opportunity to test, reflect on, and place alternative social practices within broader societal contexts in an increasingly diverse society.
