The (ab)sense of a conceptualization of social cohesion in social work
Social work practices have been placed high on the European agenda to promote social cohesion. A particular field to grasp this complexity of promoting social cohesion lies in child and family services. A systematic narrative literature review was implemented led by the following research questions: (i) How does social work literature conceptualize social cohesion? (ii) How does child and family social work literature conceptualise social cohesio…
Accessibilité des milieux d’accueil de la petite enfance en Région de Bruxelles-Capitale
Cette étude dresse un état des lieux de l'accessibilité des milieux d'accueil de la petite enfance dans la Région de Bruxelles-Capitale. À cette fin, une définition multidimensionnelle de l'accessibilité a été adoptée, qui tient compte des aspects géographiques, financiers, sociaux, culturels et pratiques, ainsi que de l'application des règles de priorité. Un modèle gravitaire à double contrainte a mis en évidence les différences en matière d'acc…

Associations between Sociodemographic Characteristics and Primary Care Arrangements for One-Year-Old Children in Finland
Introduction: Sociodemographic characteristics are robust predictors of children’s care arrangements. However, children’s unequal enrolment in early childhood education and care cannot be solely attributed to differences in sociodemographic characteristics, which are often considered separate from contextual factors. Therefore, we explored associations between sociodemographic characteristics and primary care arrangements for one-year-olds while …
Academic rigour and ideology are not incompatible in early childhood research
The times they are indeed a-changin’. Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC), today, is situated in paradoxical times. While the international awareness on the importance of the early years, of
The man with a plan
This article explores the implications of the 2004 Norwegian substance treatment reforms for social work. It considers power dynamics in social, political and economic contexts. The reforms aimed to address the absence of consensus and oversight in the Norwegian drug treatment system and to enhance accessibility and individualised care for people with substance use disorders. Using a genealogical approach and a theoretical framework based on Mich…
The Voices of Minor Children of Parents With a Mental Illness or Addiction
This qualitative evidence synthesis aims to show how the agency and voices of minor children of parents with a mental illness (COPMI) or with an addiction (COPA) are represented in existing qualitative research. A thematic analysis was conducted to analyse the parts of the articles reporting on the voices of COPMI/COPA themselves (e.g., through interviews with them). Special attention was given to how the authors of the different articles represe…
The meaning of social cohesion in preventive family support
Promoting social cohesion through early childhood services has become a priority on the political agenda. Despite joint academic and political attention, a consensus on what social cohesion is, is lacking. While child and family social work is framed as ideal to foster social cohesion, there is little knowledge on what this may mean. The aim of the current study is to analyse the meaning making of child and family social work practitioners regard…
Child and Family Social Work as a Space for Promoting Social Cohesion
Promoting social cohesion is frequently mentioned as an objective for child and family social work from a policy perspective. However, it is unclear how policies shape concrete child and family social work practices. The aim of the current study is to analyse how early childhood services in Flanders (Belgium) commit to the promotion social cohesion. An explorative multiple case study in Flanders, using (non)participatory observations ( N = 40), w…
Parental Involvement in early childhood education and care
Over the past few decades, scholars have paid attention to how PI (parental involvement) impacts children’s performance at school. Hence, PI is often reduced to school-centric involvement. Moreover, several studies have shown social class differences in PI, but relatively little attention has been paid to social class differences in culturally diverse contexts. In this article, we contribute to this discussion by reflecting upon how parents conce…
Multilingual language minority parents’ perspectives on their relationships with caregivers regarding the multilingual upbringing of the child
The literature strongly emphasises the importance of constructive relationships between parents and their children’s caregivers. However, minimal empirical research has investigated relationships between language minority parents and caregivers in childcare. This large-scale study seeks to fill this gap by exploring the quality of the language minority parent‒caregiver relationship with a focus on the child’s multilingual upbringing. Therefore, t…
Policymakers on social cohesion
Promoting social cohesion through early childhood services has become a priority on the political agenda as a result of societal developments. Despite joint academic and political attention, there nevertheless remains no agreement on what social cohesion is. This leads to the paradoxical situation in which early childhood services are characterised as ideal to foster social cohesion, while there is little research on what this may mean. The aim o…
Home language use with children, dialogue with multilingual parents and professional development in Ecec
Quality in home-based childcare providers
Child care quality in general, and caregiver-child interactions in particular, are salient predictors of children’s outcomes. While the importance of process quality is well known, the complex relations between structural quality and process quality are far less researched in family child care, compared to centre based child care. Flanders shows unique features to do so, considering its high enrolment rates of the youngest children and its large …
What parents and teachers say about their relationships in Ecec
A growing body of literature refers to the potential of parental involvement (PI) as a critical educational remedy and solution for a diversity of issues in ECEC. However, the reflection of mainstream values and assumptions and the lack of attention to cultural differences in this existing body of literature has been criticized. In this article, we, therefore, conducted 15 focus groups to explore parents and teachers’ perspectives on what they pe…
Measuring the young child
In this contribution, we look – both historically and in the present – at how children are objectified in data and how it is assumed that this objectivation is a way to dismiss ideology, or at least to separate the ideological from the scientific. We argue, however, that the separation of data from ideology is itself a highly ideological choice. As Freire points out: education never was and never can be objective. The objectivation of the child a…
Is everybody happy? Exploring the predictability of parent satisfaction with childcare in Flanders
Dealing with the wicked issue of child poverty
In the international realm, inter‐organizational networking is perceived as a highly relevant instrument in social policy that enables welfare organizations to deal with “wicked issues.” In this article, we discuss the central empirical findings acquired from a recent qualitative research project that focuses on inter‐organizational networks that were formed at the local level to deal with the wicked issue of child poverty as a complex and multid…
Complexities in the Exchange of Private Information in Inter-Organisational Networks
In this contribution, we focus on the question of how social workers actually deal with the complexity of sharing private information in three local networks of social provision that aim to combat child poverty. Building on the existing body of social work research, we discuss how practices for exchanging private information are enmeshed in a field of tension between both regulation and discretion. This complexity reveals a major challenge for so…
Proportionate universalism in child and family social work
Integrated services in preventive health care and child and family social work increasingly embrace the concept of proportionate universalism (PU) as a means of overcoming the dichotomy between universal and targeted services in contexts of diversity. The implementation of the concept of PU raises several theoretical and empirical questions that form the basis of this article. This study aims to provide more insight in how the concept of PU is op…
Foster parents between voluntarism and professionalisation
Managing the flow of private information on children and parents in poverty situations
In this article, we discuss how the flow of private information about children and families in poverty situations is managed in interorganizational networks that aim to combat child poverty. Although practices for sharing information and documentation between child and family social work services are highly encouraged and recommended to create supportive features for parents and children, this development often results in undesirable forms of gov…
Hide and Seek
It is argued that recent shifts and changes in welfare paradigms have induced a depolitisation of the problem of poverty, within both society and organisational settings. In this contribution, we adopt the idea that social workers are political actors who co-construct policy in practice rather than passive objects of these developments. While researching their agency, our attempt is to engage in the underexposed question of how front line workers…
Families with young children in times of economic downturn
In response to the global financial crisis, social policies in Europe and elsewhere incorporated a logic of social investment to reduce (child) poverty and social inequality. Several critiques, however, have been raised against the narrowness of this discourse. In order to introduce another way of seeing, an interview study was conducted inspired by the interpretative paradigm of lifeworld orientation. This has allowed us to acquire a critical, i…
Mothers’ search for infant child care
Children's Agency and Educational Norms
Children as social actors' and 'children's participation' are key concepts in present-day discourse and form a significant paradigm shift for the educational sciences, inspired by sociology of childhood. Some critical comments can however be made on how these concepts are transcribed into practice. A historical perspective, connecting the micro and the macro level, investigates how the new paradigm may be linked to discursive fields related to ne…
Challenging the feminisation of the workforce
Despite the political and academic debate on the demands for more male workers in Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC), no European country has reached the benchmark set for 2006 to have 20% male early childhood workers. This has predominantly been countered by challenging the idea that care for the youngest implies an activity ‘that women naturally do’ and by consequently arguing for a higher status and better working conditions for caring …
Parenting as a performance
The existing critical literature on constructions of childhood and parenthood is only beginning to listen to what parents have to say. As a result, parents may paradoxically be viewed as passive victims and therefore reduced to be the spectators of what is supposed to be their 'problem'. The present study analyses dominant parent advice texts in the Flemish community of Belgium, as well as the voices of parents on the Internet. The study confirms…
Do families in poverty need child and family social work
This article attempts to contribute to the historically relevant debate about the role of social work in poverty situations, focusing on the emblematic and radical question whether the poor actually need social work. In the context of the currently dominant policy framework in European welfare states, that is underpinned by the emerging paradigm of social investment, we argue that it is extremely relevant to readdress this question. Within this d…
Reconstructing the Foundations of Joined-Up Working
In a diversity of European countries, an ambitious pursuit of organisational reform is stressed in the field of social work policy and practice, which is rhetorically rooted in ‘joined-up thinking’. Emerging criticism about joined-up working has been identified in the body of available research, particularly in terms of the construction and pursuit of joint goals. In this article, we discuss the empirical findings that were acquired during a rece…
The (ab)sense of a concept of social support in parenting research
Social support, as a complex, dynamic and multidimensional concept, has been studied extensively. However, a review of research publications on social support and parenting reveals that social work perspectives on social support are underdeveloped in the S ocial S ciences C itation I ndex. Social support is predominantly studied in relation to parental health, considering social support as a buffer against potential negative outcomes for children…
Immigrant mothers crossing borders
In a small-scale study we analyse the narratives of three recently-arrived immigrant mothers with young children, making use of child care. Drawing on post-foundational theories and third-wave feminism, the analysis of these narratives enables us to look at how issues of diversity, democracy and citizenship are shaped in micro-events of daily practice. The study shows how reciprocity may be shaped in what is fundamentally an asymmetrical relation…
Mapping constructs of gender in research on Igbo women in Nigeria
Southern feminist theorists make a pertinent call for the democratisation of knowledge between the North and the South. In this article, we embrace a southern perspective in feminist theory while embarking on a genealogical analysis of gender constructs in research about Igbo women in South-Eastern Nigeria. In that sense, the study of gender constructs within feminist scholarship is itself a major source of inspiration. We therefore throw light o…
What families in poverty consider supportive
In current European Welfare states, Child and Family Social Work has been assigned a pivotal role in constructing a route out of (child) poverty. The direction, processes and outcomes of these interventions are, however, rarely negotiated with the families involved. Based on a retrospective biographical research with parents of young children who experienced financial difficulties over time, this paper therefore seeks to uncover and understand ho…
The roller-coaster of experiences
When early testing indicates a hearing loss, parents find themselves on a roller-coaster of experiences leaving little time or space for reflection. This study is based on interviews with families in the Flemish region of Belgium, one of the earliest in the world to introduce universal neonatal screening for hearing loss. Starting from a phenomenological approach, we explore parents’ accounts of their experiences in order to uncover the meanings …
One size fits all? The social construction of dis-employ-abled women
This article is based on an evaluation of a labour-market training programme for women with ‘mental health problems’ in a social workplace in Belgium. The research team explored the retrospective insider perspectives on the work aspirations of the women involved in the programme to identify critical dynamics in their high drop-out from the social workplace. The central findings provide evidence of a prevalent one-size-fits-all discourse in these …
The impact of policy measures and coaching on the availability and accessibility of early child care
We conducted a study of changes in the availability, accessibility and enrolment of children from low‐income, single‐parent and ethnic minority families in early child care centres. The study was carried out in Brussels which offers unique possibilities to study accessibility in a context in which quality and costs are controlled across centres. A survey on access policies in 89 day care centres, and on 150 mothers regarding their search process,…

Professionals' understanding of partnership with parents in the context of family support programmes
Partnership has become a dominant concept in current thinking about the parent–professional relationship within a variety of interventions aimed at child welfare, including family support practice. However, despite the burgeoning policy and research attention, the meaning of partnership in practice remains unclear. Based on interviews with professionals in a family support intervention in F landers (the D utch‐speaking part of B elgium), this pap…
The Persistent Gap between Education and Care
The first Belgian crèches for children from birth to three years of age date from the nineteenth century. From 1919, formal legislation on child care was developed. In the early twentieth century, the origins of Belgian childcare and in its initial legislation some core aspects of present‐day child care policy and practice can be found. This article will focus on two of these historical aspects of Belgian child care. Both features have far‐reachi…

Informal social support in contexts of diversity
This paper aims to re-examine the social dimension of social support as the shared responsibility of social work and families in shaping social support rather than pressuring parents' individual responsibilities, as this has been a significantly under-theorised issue in social work research. In our qualitative study, we discuss parents' experiences of informal social support in Centres for Children and Parents (CCP) in two cities in Belgium. Duri…

Social work research as a practice of transparency
Social work research is inherently normative and as such the assumptions about social problems in social work research should be open to scrutiny and contestation. But although researchers often face tussles and huge contradictions, they rarely articulate them. In this article, we report on a small research project in which a collective of social work researchers in Flanders (the Dutch speaking part of Belgium) tried to think critically through s…
Origins and rationale of centres for parents and young children together
The range of centres where parents and children come together has mushroomed in different parts of the world, as new social work practices address the emerging non‐material needs of parents in changing demographic contexts. In this paper, we explore the origins and modi operandi of these centres in B elgium, F rance, I taly and J apan. Analysis of previous studies and policy documents reveal diverse political rationales, including addressing decl…

Social work and parent support in reaction to children's antisocial behaviour
This article focuses on STOP4‐7, an ecological early intervention programme for children with serious behavioural problems in Belgium, which includes social skills training for children, management training for parents and classroom management training for teachers. We argue how this type of social work benefits from empirical research on its effects on children and parents. Yet social work research that addresses these questions needs to extend …

The Social And Political Construction Of Early Childhood Education
We analyse two foundational social problems regarding early childhood education. The first, in the late nineteenth century, is infant mortality, a social problem that constituted the historical legitimation for the first crèches. The second, the prevention of school failure, is very topical today. By analysing these examples in their historicity, taking into account social, political, economical and scientific contexts, it becomes clear that earl…
Parent-worker relationships in child welfare social work
The involvement of parents within child and family social work has become an important research topic during the past few decades. Within this research, a lot of attention is paid to partnership, which is recognised as a dominant concept in current thinking about the parent–worker relationship in present-day practice. The debate on parent–worker relationships, however, seems to be mainly focussed on the individual relationship between the parent …

The Greatest of Equalisers’
There is a large consensus among international organisations (e.g., United Nations and the World Bank) in considering Early Childhood Care and Education a prominent policy to equalise opportunities. Moreover, it is common opinion that interventions in early childhood aiming at equalising ‘opportunities’ rather than ‘outcomes’ will overcome political dissent. These two claims draw upon a particular interpretation of the work of contemporary egalit…

Equality of Opportunities, Divergent Conceptualisations and their Implications for Early Childhood Care and Education Policies
This article aims to explore the relations between equality of opportunity and early childhood. By referring to the work of contemporary philosophers, i.e. Rawls, Sen, Dworkin, Cohen and Roemer, we argue for different possible interpretations, based on political discussions, concerning how to operationalize equality of opportunities. We represent these diverging options on a continuum, ranging from Responsibility-oriented Equality of Opportunity …

Young children in Brussels
In the Belgian federal system, matters related to persons are under the remit of the Community and not of the Region. But although matters such as education and culture are managed in a French- or Dutch-language framework, they are major challenges for Brussels. On several occasions, the Brussels Studies Institute synopses have dealt with the challenges of mainly Community matters in a Brussels perspective, in particular by gathering information …
Jonge kinderen in Brussel
In het Belgische federale systeem zijn niet de Gewesten maar de Gemeenschappen bevoegd voor de persoonsgebonden materies, zoals onderwijs of cultuur. Hoewel deze materies dus in een Franstalig of Nederlandstalig kader worden beheerd, vormen ze grote uitdagingen voor Brussel. De synthesenota’s van het Brussels Studies Institute hebben al herhaaldelijk in essentie communautaire materies vanuit een Brussels perspectief benaderd, met name door inform…
Les jeunes enfants à Bruxelles
Dans le système fédéral belge, les matières liées aux personnes sont une compétence communautaire et non pas régionale. Mais ces matières, comme l’enseignement ou la culture, bien que gérées dans un cadre francophone ou néerlandophone sont pourtant des enjeux majeurs pour Bruxelles. Les notes de synthèse du Brussels Studies Institute ont déjà à plusieurs reprises abordé les enjeux de matières essentiellement communautaires dans une perspective br…
