Specifications
Despite the rapid advancements in information technology, the globalization of the economy, and mass media, humans continue to seek community. The feeling of belonging, of having roots somewhere, provides emotional security and certainly fulfills the need for companionship.
Community Work, as a systematic scientific process of intervention in the community, ultimately aims for socio-political emancipation and community development. Through appropriate interventions, methods, and techniques, the community worker encourages and mobilizes residents for collective action and collaboration in order to solve local community issues and social problems, and even more so to contribute to the primary prevention of such problems.
In this book, the author describes the methods and techniques of action in the Community. With examples drawn from his rich experience as well as his academic training, he helps the reader to understand both the theoretical field and the process of Community Work, which is a distinct scientific discipline and falls within the broader field of social sciences.
