The history of social work is a subject area of ​​the teaching of social work and the scientific history of social problem science and the professional processing, solution and avoidance of these. It deals with the development of the institutionalization of social work from medieval poor relief and the beginnings of a public welfare system to the global present of social work, in which it is established as a human rights profession , divided into three classic methods ( community work , individual aid and social group work ) .

Importance of the history of social work

The history of social work serves to get a historical transfer to the emergence and development processes of social work. This acts as a comparative value in social research in the field of practice ( field research ) and in teaching ( theory formation of social work).

Perspectives on the history of social work

The history of social work takes different perspectives depending on the social problem. It deals with many aspects of social action from the development of migrant welfare / homeless assistance, youth welfare in the Federal Republic of Germany , the history of equality for women , or the advice and welfare for emigrants as well as the development of integration work for migrants in the USA . From a historical point of view, it also reflects the theoretical and institutional history of social work as well as the history of training and further education institutions for social work. The advancing professionalization and scientificization of this discipline are of particular interest.

Disciplines

Various sub-categories of social work history can be found in the literature. Schilling / Zeller split into adult care and child care . We often find the classic disciplines of individual help, community work and group work as sub-categories. Recently, the specialist categories adult education , youth welfare and youth social work, elderly care , handicapped assistance , deviance work ( probation assistance ) and prevention (addiction, crime, violence, conflict ...), integration assistance for resettlers, emigrants and foreigners, health promotion and prevention . Clinical social work , on the other hand, is seen as a branch of the history of resource support and is conceived as a consulting system . The disciplines together and the history of social and health care (= social history ) make up the history of social work. A very new branch is the history of social research .
