摘要

本篇文章主要的論點是社會工作者儘管扮演助人的角色，替面臨各式社會問題的人解決問題，但社會工作者本身可以做為非暴力的社會運動改革者，追求由結構面改革社會不平等的體制。改革目標在達成與建立具社會正義與不被壓迫的社會分配體系。社會工作者可將社會變遷或「基變」取向的社會工作可融入他們的日常實踐之中。如果能採取這種角度看待專業社會工作，那麼最終會解決目前社會福利服務措施本身的矛盾與促進社會正義的追求，以實踐社會工作專業本身的倫理與價值。

This essay argues that social workers, while helping people with diverse social problems, can also act as agents of non-violent social movements, pursuing fundamental structural changes, aimed at overcoming social injustice and oppression. Many social workers think that a social change or ”radical” orientation can be integrated into their practice. Doing so could eventually resolve the contradictions between conventional tendencies of the social services and the ethical imperative of the profession, to pursue social justice.
