Abstract
CIFUENTES-PATINO, María Rocío and VALLEJO-GONZALEZ, Sandra Yaneth. SOCIAL WORK AND SOCIAL JUSTICE IN TIMES OF TRANSITION. Rev. eleuthera [online]. 2018, vol.18, pp.150-165. ISSN 2011-4532. https://doi.org/10.17151/eleu.2018.18.9.
Objective.
To motivate the reflection of social science professionals, especially social workers, regarding the challenges of the peace building process with social justice.
Methodology.
In order to elaborate this reflection, it was necessary to consult: 1) the research carried out by the Cedat research group in this area; 2) the social projection experiences of the Cedat center; and 3) literature on the area of social justice and peace.
Results.
Responsibilities and challenges, present and future, for social work in relation to the process of transition towards the construction of peace with social justice are derived from the text.
Conclusion.
Social work must: 1) involve a plural conception of social justice (restorative, redistributive and justice as recognition); 2) consider citizenship and social participation as inter and transdisciplinary meeting point, object of action, political dispute and investigation; and 3) develop collective commitment with the transition.
