Özet

Eleştirel sosyal hizmet teorisi, sunduğu eleştirel düşünmeye dair çerçeve dolayısıyla sosyal hizmet uygulamalarının merkezinde yer almaktadır. Bu teori, bireylerin karşılaştıkları sorunları sosyal yapı ve hâkim gruplar ile ilişkilendirilerek ele alınmasını içeren eleştirel düşünme, eleştirel değerlendirme ve uygulama çerçevesi doğrultusunda sosyal hizmetin sosyal değişim ve gelişim, insanların güçlenmesi ve özgürleşmesi ideallerinin gerçekleştirmesi için önemli bir yol sunmaktadır. Eleştirel sosyal hizmet radikal, yapısal, feminist, baskı karşıtı, ayrımcılık karşıtı, ırkçılık karşıtı ve post modern yaklaşımlar gibi birçok yaklaşımı kapsayan temel bir anlayışa sahiptir. Eleştirel sosyal hizmet teorisi, günümüz koşullarında her geçen gün daha da ihtiyaç duyulan bir yaklaşım olarak nitelendirilmektedir. Yapılan bu derleme çalışması ile eleştirel sosyal hizmet teorisi ve uygulamasına dair kapsamlı bir anlayış oluşturmak amaçlanmıştır. Bu kapsamda eleştirel sosyal hizmet teorisi sosyal hizmette eleştirel yanın gelişimine, eleştirel teoriden aldığı temel fikirlere ve uygulama süreçlerine dair bilgilerle ele alınmıştır.
