Social work has experienced unique tensions related to its professional identity and dual purpose of social reform and individualized treatment. Scholars have represented this dual purpose, epitomized by Jane Addams and Mary Richmond, as indicating irreconcilable differences

Social work has experienced unique tensions related to its professional identity and dual purpose of social reform and individualized treatment. Scholars have represented this dual purpose, epitomized by Jane Addams and Mary Richmond, as indicating irreconcilable differences. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the writings and speeches of Mary Richmond and Jane Addams, and, based on this inquiry, to assert that their respective approache…
A Freirean analysis of Kazakhstani social work education
The authors examine their Kazakhstani social work teaching experiences. Key elements discussed include the history of Kazakhstani culture, language, family life; the view that the classroom is a microcosm of the larger society; and the role of language dominance in the Kazakhstani classroom. Five concepts provide a framework for analyzing our classroom experiences, including indigenization, internationalization, and three concepts from Paulo Frei…
East Meets West
Life-span theories (e.g., Erikson) represent a cornerstone in social work education and practice. We believe these theories that articulate development as a sequence of stages deserve closer scrutiny and could be strengthened through application of nonlinear views for understanding human growth and development. For our purposes, Taoist principles provide this nonlinear perspective. In this article, we provide a summary of Erikson's writings, intr…
The Cultivation of Social Workers' Hope in Personal Life and Professional Practice
Hope writings within the social sciences literature assume that social work professionals already possess hope that they can readily draw upon to evoke change in clients. The purpose of this article is to challenge this assumption and in response, to put forth ways of assessing hope within the social worker's personal life and in educational and agency-based practice contexts. Implications for developing and nurturing professional hope through th…
Professional Hope in Working with Older Adults

The purpose of this article is to challenge this assumption and to examine ways in which social workers can sustain hope in personal life, in their agencies, and in the reform of larger social structures that impact older adults. The authors examine culture change in nursing homes as an emerging approach that can be…
