In diesem Buch untersucht die Autorin das Thema Schamdynamiken in der stationären Betreuung Jugendlicher, indem sie ethnographisch erhobene Interaktionsverläufe und qualitative Interviews ...interpretiert. Es werden verschiedene Fälle analysiert, in denen unter anderem das Spannungsfeld der emotionalen Belastung von Fachkräften und ihre pädagogischen Handlungsspielräume eine Rolle spielen. Außerdem gibt die Studie Aufschluss über den Umgang mit der Ausübung von Gewalt aus der Sicht Jugendlicher oder mit den Folgen suizidalen Verhaltens. Der Ausdruck von Scham durch die Jugendlichen, der Fachkräfte sowie auch das Schamempfinden der Forschenden sind hierbei Anhaltspunkte, von denen aus Kontraste und strukturelle Zusammenhänge in den Daten gefunden werden. Bei der Interpretation werden soziologische Affekttheorien einbezogen, die betonen, dass ein dichotomes Verständnis von Affekten als nur positiv oder negativ deren komplexer Funktion nicht gerecht wird. Damit leistet das Buch einen Beitrag zum Verstehen des sozialen Sinns von Affekten und macht die Affektforschung für die Sozialpädagogik fruchtbar.
In this book, the author examines the topic of shame dynamics in residential care for adolescents by interpreting ethnographically collected interaction processes. The expressions of shame by the adolescents, their caregivers, as well as the researchers’ perception of shame, are points of reference from which contrasts and structural connections in the data are identified. Modern theories of affect are included, which emphasise that a dichotomous understanding of affects as only positive or negative does not do justice to their complex function. In this way, the work contributes to understanding the social meaning of affects and makes affect research fruitful for social pedagogy.
In einer soziologischen Grundlagenforschung wurden auf Basis von personenbezogenen Akten aus der Heimerziehung der 1950er bis 1970er Jahre Entscheidungen, Legitimationsprozesse und Handlungsvollzüge ...analysiert und typische Mechanismen der Sozialverwaltung rekonstruiert. In der Monografie werden die Ergebnisse des abgeschlossenen Forschungsprojektes gebündelt. Die Herstellung und Verwaltung eines Falles wird mit Hilfe einer textwissenschaftlichen Perspektive auf die Aktenförmigkeit von sozialbürokratischen Entscheidungsprozessen analysiert und theoretisch reflektiert.
Two decades have passed since the devolution of social care policy, with key differences emerging between the UK's four systems, but what impact have these differences had? This book presents for the ...first time research on the perspectives of social care policy makers on the four systems in which they operate and the ways in which they borrow from one another.
Drawing on extensive interviews with national and local policy makers across the UK, the book raises vital questions about the role of 'standardisation' and 'differentiation' in social care, concluding that when given equal capacity to reform their respective systems, the regimes in each nation may take radically different shapes.

Children and youth belong to one of the most vulnerable groups in societies. This was the case even before the current humanitarian crises around the world which led millions of people and families ...to flee from wars, terror, poverty and exploitation. Minors have been denied human rights such as access to education, food and health services. They have been kidnapped, sold, manipulated, mutilated, killed, and injured. This has been and continues to be the case in both developed and developing countries, and it does not look as if the situation will improve in the near future. Rather, current geopolitical developments, political and economic uncertainties and instabilities seem to be increasing the vulnerability of minors, especially in the wars and armed conflicts currently being waged not only in Europe, but on almost every continent. How can risks children and youth are exposed to in times of transition be reduced? Which role do state agencies, non-governmental organisations, as well as children’s coping strategies play in mitigating the vulnerabilities of minors? This volume addresses risks to which children and young people are exposed, especially in times of transition. The focus is on different groups of children in the European wartime and post-war societies of the Second World War, ‘occupation children’ in Germany, teenage National Socialist collaborators in Norway, and more recent cases such as child soldiers, refugee children, and children of European “Islamic State” fighters. The contributions come from international scholars and different academic disciplines (educational and social sciences, humanities, law, and international peace and conflict studies) and are based on historical, quantitative, and/or qualitative analyses. ; Children and youth belong to one of the most vulnerable groups in societies.

This open access book contributes to ongoing discussions about how societies should respond to children who have experienced violence and abuse by delving into the Barnahus model: a multidisciplinary ...and co-located model whose aim is to provide both justice and recovery to victimised children. The promising model was first implemented in the Nordic region and is currently being diffused across Europe, although scientific knowledge about the model remains scarce: the Barnahus model’s potential for delivering holistic services, the various tensions and dilemmas involved in the model, and how dual mandate of Barnahus can be managed all require further research. Continuing from the volume Collaborating Against Child Abuse (2017) which examined the process of Barnahus’ diffusion in the Nordic countries, the current book digs deeper into the intrinsic institutional tensions of the model, as well as those that might arise during collaboration, in order to advance our understanding of what can be achieved through the model and thus improve the situation of child victims of violence and abuse. An institutional perspective is used in the book which is structured in four parts. The first three parts explore different types of institutional tensions –legal, organisational, and professional-ethical, while the fourth focuses on how these tensions may be balanced. The book’s authors chart this new phase in the diffusion and translation of the Barnahus model. Their analyses will provide valuable guidance to countries that are currently considering or are already implementing the model.
Based on extensive data, including 800 hours of interview material, online questionnaires and group discussions, the second volume of results from the research transfer project "Child and Youth Work ...in Corona Times" at HAW Hamburg presents fascinating insights into the perspectives of young people between the ages of 13 and 25 on open child and youth work. The authors thus make a valuable contribution to the analysis of the significance of these institutions during the Corona era.
Kinder- und Jugendarbeit ist ein wichtiger gesellschaftlicher Ermöglichungs- und Unterstützungsort für junge Menschen. Basierend auf Gruppendiskussionen mit 87 Jugendlichen präsentiert der zweite Ergebnisband des Forschungstransferprojektes „Kinder- und Jugendarbeit in Corona-Zeiten“ der HAW Hamburg faszinierende Einblicke in die Perspektiven junger Menschen zwischen 13 und 25 Jahren auf Einrichtungen der Offenen Kinder- und Jugendarbeit – ein wertvoller Beitrag zur Analyse der Bedeutung dieser Orte für junge Menschen in Krisenzeiten.
For the elderly, the right to choose where and with whom to live takes on special significance: it is related to the overcoming of ageism, of which both paternalism and a segregationist and ...institutionalizing approach to old age are part. Nevertheless, so far, the multilevel politics concerning active and healthy aging, the right to independent living, the ageing in place and the transition to ""new"" models of welfare have not really been able to remedy the exclusion experienced by many older people socially and in the urban context. For this reason, the elderly’s right to the (age-friendly) city is still, at least in part, not adequately guaranteed. The essays collected in this volume are the outcome of an interdisciplinary research focused primarily on the municipality of Ferrara (one of the Italian cities most affected by population aging) but have also a more general relevance. They aim at reflecting on the complex intertwining of the needs and rights of the elderly population and, in particular, on their right to lead a life of dignity and independence (also) within the urban context.
This book focuses on the significance of family in child welfare (CW) services from multidisciplinary perspectives. The authors are concerned with how families experience encounters with CW workers, ...how professional CW work with families is guided by rules and principles, and how social structures and ideologies influence CW work. Taken together, the chapters contribute to a comprehensive understanding of how CW workers should understand the importance of family for children. The book is important for everyone who works with the welfare of children and their families, and for those who educate CW workers. Although the context for many of the discussions in the book is Norwegian CW work, the topics are general, recognisable and relevant to similar discussions in other countries. The book is intended for CW workers, policymakers, researchers, and teachers and students in social work and child welfare study programmes.
Die Disability Studies erweisen sich als wichtiger Beiträger und Impulsgeber für die wissenschaftliche Disziplin und Profession Sozialer Arbeit. Zugleich ist der Zusammenhang beider Bereiche bisher ...wenig untersucht, kaum begründet und systematisiert. Das Buch arbeitet diesem Forschungsdesiderat profund und effektiv entgegen. Die Beiträge untersuchen, inwiefern sich die Verbindung zwischen Disability Studies und Sozialer Arbeit bereits als fruchtbar erwiesen hat, noch erweisen könnte oder was einer Verknüpfung im Wege steht. So leistet es einerseits theoretische Grundlagenforschung, indem es den systematischen Einbezug der Disability Studies in die interdisziplinäre Handlungswissenschaft Soziale Arbeit untersucht. Andererseits betreibt es angewandte Wissenschaft, insofern es an Konsequenzen interessiert ist, die sich hieraus für die Sozialarbeitsforschung und die professionelle Praxis ergeben.
Staunen ist Ergriffensein, ein Antworten auf ungeahnte Ansprüche und dessen Ausdruck. Im Staunen öffnen und weiten sich die Möglichkeiten, es retardiert die Erfahrung und schafft Zeiträume für ...Veränderungen. Theresa Stommel nutzt diese Zugänge, um auf das Problem mangelnder Bildung und unzureichender kultureller Teilhabe von Menschen mit geistiger und schwerer Behinderung zu antworten. Sie pointiert Bildung als Veränderungsprozess in der Erfahrung des Fremden mit kulturellen, ethischen und gesellschaftlichen Ansprüchen und begründet das Staunen als Phänomen, das Bildungsprozesse begleiten kann. Damit eröffnen sich frische bildungsphilosophische Perspektiven - und unbetretene Pfade in der Didaktik.
