Catching the shimmers of the social
With the questioning of the neutral objective researcher, reflexivity has jumped to the forefront of qualitative research, thus positioning the embodied researcher within the research process. In its power to reveal tacit embodied social structures, reflexivity is touted as the hallmark of methodological validation while also being described as a messy process, particularly in participatory research. In this article, we use illustrative examples …

The circulation of knowledge and practices across national borders in the early twentieth century
In this article, we focus on the emergence of ideas and practices at a local level as the result of the transnational circulation of knowledge in social reform that became shared understandings in the transatlantic world of the early twentieth century. Bringing together the theoretical frameworks of transnational history with imperialism and post-colonialism studies, we revisit the results of two research projects on the settlement house movement…

Promoting Critical Reflexivity through Arts-Based Media
As an increasingly central focus of social work pedagogy, critical reflexivity can be distinguished from non-critical forms of reflexivity by its emphasis on the socially constructed, power-laden nature of knowledge and subjectivity, and its embracement of anxiety and other difficult emotions in social work practice. Given the in actu nature of its processes, however, critical reflexivity poses particular challenges as a teaching objective for so…

Rethinking youth violence and healing
In a world where violence and healing are posited as oppositional, critical youth studies, youth work practitioners, and human rights and social justice activists often locate themselves on the healing side of the divide, shedding light on the suffering and alleviating the pain of the violence. However, current theoretical developments prompt us to critically engage this oppositional binary constructed between violence and healing. We have come t…

L’évaluation des services d’établissement pour les personnes immigrantes et réfugiées
Le secteur des services pour nouveaux arrivants au Canada est en pleine mutation. Nous examinons les enjeux et débats que soulève la question des normes et des cadres d’évaluation pertinents pour le secteur, et les principes qui les sous-tendent. Nous dégageons des lignes de réflexion théorique et identifions diverses approches et initiatives concrètes sur le terrain. Nous posons la question de la relation entre évaluation et politique sociale da…
The Material Presence of Early Social Work
This article focuses on the practice of archival research and addresses the methodology and work of interpretation that are at stake in dealing with a multiplicity of archival media: texts, images and objects. It raises questions that arise from the archive of a Toronto child-care agency that celebrated its centennial anniversary in 2009. This work is part of a project that links social work practices to cultural representations. By exploring the…

Les stratégies narratives du récit et de la parole. Comment progresse et s'échafaude une méthode d'analyse
Le présent article rend compte d'un essai de modélisation ouverte d'analyse du discours portant simultanément sur la narration et sur l'énonciation. L'analyse des stratégies narratives du récit et de la parole s'est développée sur la buse d'emprunts interdisciplinaires et de l'examen de pratiques discursives, dont l'objectif était d'identifier des stratégies de transformation. Les opérations mises en œuvre sont définies au regard de la position r…
Ethnic Identity, Intergroup Relations and Welfare Policy in the Canadian Context
This paper illuminates the negotiation of group identities and intergroup relations in the Canadian context. It presents an empirical, comparative analysis of group claims around social assistance policy using discourse analysis. Lexical, semantic and narrative analyses of Aboriginal and multicultural documents show a complex organization of intergroup relations, with distinct and at times conflicting claims. In view of the tensions, responsive p…

From Concepets to Practice
Social work has a number of broad conceptual models, but the difficulty lies in translating them into concrete categories that reflect the student's or practitioner's experience in the field. This paper presents a middle-range conceptualization which works both deductively from the conceptual models and inductively from practice experiences. The conceptual frame is made up of three dimensions: (a) levels of intervention; (b) phases of the problem…
