A assessoria do serviço social na gestão das políticas sociais

A obra tem origem nas indagações surgidas a partir da experiência profissional da autora e do acompanhamento, desde sua formação acadêmica, da implantação e gestão da Lei Orgânica da Assistência Social (Loas) em 1993, reestruturada na Política Nacional de Assistência Social (PNAS) em 2004 e recentemente organizada como Sistema Único de Assistência Social (Suas). Ela analisa o processo de assessoria na gestão política de assistência social no âmbito municipal com objetivo de contribuir para o debate sobre a gestão descentralizada e participativa e promover entre os profissionais da área conhecimentos e inquietações acerca do Suas, concebido a partir da Constituição Federal de 1988. O livro defende a ideia de que a assistência social, como política pública universal, redistributiva e de qualidade, é fator fundamental da proteção social brasileira. E que sua reestruturação, que resultou no rompimento com o ultrapassado modelo socioassistencial sustentado no clientelismo, busca avançar rumo à garantia de direitos sociais por meio da inserção da assistência social tanto na prática quanto nos espaços de decisão políticos. Nesse contexto, propõe uma reflexão sobre a ação profissional do Serviço Social no âmbito da política. As reflexões e conclusões da autora baseiam-se de análise de dados obtidos em pesquisa qualitativa realizada com profissionais que atuam em assessoria do Serviço Social na região administrativa de Franca, a Nordeste do estado de São Paulo, formada por 23 municípios de vários portes. A obra tem origem nas indagações surgidas a partir da experiência profissional da autora e do acompanhamento, desde sua formação acadêmica, da implantação e gestão da Lei Orgânica da Assistência Social (Loas) em 1993, reestruturada na Política Nacional de Assistência Social (PNAS) em 2004 e recentemente organizada como Sistema Único de Assistência Social (Suas).

Dependência de álcool e outras drogas: debate conceitual, políticas públicas e a inserção do serviço social nessa área

Este estudo buscou identificar a inserção do Serviço Social na intervenção profissional junto à dependência de álcool e outras drogas na década de 1980, no Rio de Janeiro, a partir do debate conceitual acerca dessa temática e da análise das políticas públicas formuladas pelo Estado brasileiro para o seu enfrentamento. Caracteriza-se como uma pesquisa de natureza exploratória face à parca existência de produções científicas no Serviço Social sobre tal questão. Assim, constituindo-se como uma contribuição em termos de subsídios à ação profissional dos assistentes sociais. Os dados coletados junto aos representantes e assistentes sociais de instituições em funcionamento na década de 1980 permitiram delinear um perfil sobre a implantação do Serviço Social na intervenção profissional junto a essa problemática. Inicialmente, as entidades sem fins lucrativos e os programas de dependência química de empresa foram os principais espaços ocupados pelos profissionais de Serviço Social, havendo uma inexpressiva presença nos órgãos estatais. A partir dos anos noventa, com as políticas públicas de atenção ao consumo de drogas, amplia-se o número de assistentes sociais com atuação nessa área, cabendo, portanto, ao Serviço Social contribuir mais intensamente com estudos científicos, visando melhor instrumentalizá-los de forma teórico-metodológica e técnico-operativa.

A gênese e a estrutura do serviço social brasileiro no período doutrinário católico

Esta tese examina os textos sobre a história do Serviço Social Latino-Americano e Brasileiro questionando as generalizações formuladas. Mostra-se que não está de todo clara a caracterização e a explicação da gênese e do processo de estruturação do Serviço Social Brasileiro. Com base na metodologia de Lucien Goldmann foram estudados os textos produzidos pelos primeiros assistentes sociais brasileiros até dezembro de 1947, ano de realização do I Congresso Brasileiro de Serviço Social. Identificou-se sete autores significativos, isto é, que expressavam a maior coerência em relação à visão social de mundo contida na totalidade do material produzido. A partir dos autores significativos e, com base na Doutrina Social da Igreja católica, identificou-se a estrutura de visão social de mundo assumida pelos mesmos. Foram analizados os aspectos do homem, da família, da educação, da sociedade, do estado, do governo e do direito e justiça social. Todos se estruturam dentro da perspectiva denominada Democracia Cristã. Da mesma forma foram examinados os conceitos, finalidades, a ação e a formação profissional do assistente social no período. Especial atenção foi dada à discussão: Serviço Social - profissão ou apostolado. Identificou-se alguns pontos divergentes entre os autores, o que prova que a homogeneidade atríbuida aos mesmos não corresponde à realidade constatada.

A história do "turismo social" no Serviço Social do Comércio - SP

Este trabalho é fruto de uma investigação realizada no doutorado em História, Política e Bens Culturais do Centro de Pesquisa e Documentação de História Contemporânea do Brasil da Fundação Getulio Vargas - orientada pela profa. Dra. Bianca Freire-Medeiros - acerca da constituição e implementação do turismo social no Serviço Social do Comércio do estado de São Paulo (Sesc-SP), examinando as circunstâncias em que o lazer e as experiências turísticas tornam-se relevantes nas políticas e ações da entidade. Procurou-se entender as transformações e readequações que nortearam as iniciativas da instituição e como as modificações no conceito de turismo social no Brasil e no mundo vêm dialogando com suas diretrizes, posturas e intenções. A metodologia privilegiada na pesquisa foi a história oral temática, no intuito de fazer o registro da história do envolvimento de profissionais com o turismo social do Sesc-SP. Foram realizadas vinte e duas entrevistas com (ex)profissionais e feitas algumas visitas à Biblioteca do departamento nacional do Sesc (Sesc-DN) e ao setor de memória e documentação (Sesc-Memórias) do departamento regional paulista do Sesc, lugares que congregam documentos importantes relacionados à história do turismo na instituição. Espacialmente a pesquisa situa-se no Sesc-SP, repartição atuante e “atenta” às ideias e mudanças envolvendo o turismo social, e representativa na história do fenômeno, no Brasil e no mundo. A circunscrição temporal da pesquisa abarca desde 1979 - ano em que o Sesc de São Paulo passa a desenvolver excursões, passeios e viagens com maior frequência e tenta se aprofundar conceitualmente do turismo social ao se aproximar de órgãos internacionais de relevância política e científica na área - até as ações realizadas em 2013, ano no qual termino a pesquisa de campo e as entrevistas. Durante a trajetória da pesquisa, dialoguei com o período que antecede este recorte, acerca dos empreendimentos do Sesc relacionados as práticas de lazer e turismo, gerando o capítulo 2. Antes, no capítulo 1, tentei reconhecer o lugar do turismo social na história das atividades turísticas no mundo, entendendo-o enquanto oportunidade de efetivação do direito ao lazer. Para alcance dos intentos da tese, como fontes foram utilizados documentos produzidos em âmbito institucional, articulados com a fala dos indivíduos entrevistados, trabalho conjugado especialmente no capítulo 3, em que trago reflexões a respeito do turismo social desenvolvido pelo Sesc-SP. Dentre as análises alvitradas, descrevo a dificuldade encontrada pela entidade ao expandir suas atividades turísticas, vindo a sofrer represálias do setor privado. Deve-se destacar que foi possível perceber a metamorfose conceitual/prática por qual passara o turismo social no Sesc-SP, agregando diferentes conteúdos ao fenômeno e modificando seus processos de trabalho e práticas profissionais. Ressalto ainda o papel ideológico da administração regional do Sesc-SP dentro do Serviço Social do Comércio no Brasil, notadamente na área do turismo. Por fim, envolvo no debate da tese as políticas sociais de turismo, compreendido enquanto possibilidade de lazer.

Instrumentalidade do serviço social: dimensões teórico-metodológica, ético-política e técnico-operativa e exercício profissional

The dissertation proposes a discussion about the instrumentality of the Social Work, in the attempt of visualizing her, as well as the profession, in a totality perspective to the light of the rationality critical-dialetical. Understood as the capacity that the professional subjects acquire of giving answers to the demands that are placed to the profession, itself built partner-historically, in a teleologys conflicts and causalitys. So, it is proposed the discussion of the instrumentality while a group of you know specific, composed essentially by the development of three practical-formative dimensions. The theoretical-methodological refers to the capacity of apprehension of the method and of the theories and, consequently, of the relationship that does with the practice. The dimension ethical-politics concerns the development of the capacity of analyzing the society and the own profession as field of contradictory forces, being considered the character eminently political of the professional exercise, as well as the professional's conscience concerning the social direction that prints in your intervention. And the technician-operative dimension refers more strictly to the technical elements and you score for the development of the intervention.

Movimento estudantil e serviço social no capitalismo contemporâneo: tendências e particularidades

This dissertation aims to analyze the social direction in which the Student Movement in Social Work in Brazil (ENESSO) has gone through. This is done considering how the functioning of the National Executive, the Brazilian Social Work Student union has operated. The research analyzed their political position regarding the university as well as professional education in the period of 2003 to 2008. The study s theoretical and methodological object was obtained according to its structural, juncture, and time determinants. All of the mentioned elements considered the contemporary capital crisis and its implications towards the State and Society emphasizing specifically the changes that occurred in the University regarding professional education. For the purpose of data collection and production, a documental and field research was realized. Thus, interviews were done considering one manager of each management period of the ENESSO group in the time span of 2003 to 2008. Some subjects that represented the Brazilian Social Work Teaching and Research Association (ABEPSS) as well as were also interviewed. These subjects have had a relevant role in partnership with these entities and represented students in the contemporary scene. Results suggest that ENESSO has developed work that defends a project of a public, free and laic quality university. This entity also defends a project that considers the 1996 Curricular Guidelines. Currently, there is internal dispute in the social direction of the MESS, this is seen amongst political groups that diverge in opinions related to the analysis done by the Lula government regarding the political role that the National Student Union-UNE has taken in the counter-reform of higher education. This current juncture is seen as extremely individualist and it results as in unfavorable for the collective organization of the working class, especially regarding student movement. MESS has been going through a moment of profound instability and this dimension is being expressed by the absence of national coordinator for the 2008/2009 management period at ENESSO. Even though there are difficulties, it is possible to point out partnership of the entities that represent the national Social Work in Brazil. These partnerships are all related to a struggle and search for the development of a professional project that leads towards the sociability awareness that goes beyond capital.

Serviço Social e Política: uma análise da participação dos assistentes sociais no Conselho Regional de Serviço Social 14ª região

This paper analyzes the political participation of Social Workers at the Social Service Regional Council Region 14th. The theoretical and methodological framework of this investigation has as its perspective the totality of social life and its determining relations within the object of study. To the production, analysis and collecting of data it was used a qualitative approach considering a bibliographical and documental research as well as a series of twelve interviews with 2005-2008 and 2008-2011 managing counselors of CRESS/RN. It was also used the data obtained from other special interviews held with the social workers in the period between 2007 and 2008. The results of this study allow and affirm the political dimension of Caseworkers and the CRESS/RN as a space of political activity with opportunities for effective and collective elaboration of strategies in order to reach the fulfillment of the ethical and professional policy of the Social Work. From a historical viewpoint, the beginning of this process is marked by the struggle for democracy, the end of military dictatorship, the establishment of the State of Human Rights. The Democratization of the so called Federal Council of Social Workers and its Regional Councils of Social Workers, CFAS / CRAS, respectively, area a result of the participation of the category in an effort to fight for democratization in Brazil. The objective of this research, so, is to understand which the socio-historical determinants are, that focus objectively and subjectively in the demobilization of social workers in CRESS Region 14th - in the contemporary and historical context. Among the results obtained we identified the ignorance of some professional workers and also of some advisors, regarding the existence and the role of the Council, as well as the commercialization of Education that compromises the quality of the professional training in its theoretical and methodological, ethical and political dimensions. According to our understanding, this shows a the presence of a non-critical professional profile based on a false reality, on the precariousness of employment contracts which undermine the political organization and submit the worker to various social exploring mechanisms such as double shift and ultimately the fragility of the management of the Regional Council -, as a consequence of the offensive capitalist system that ideologically invests to stop the political organization founded in a critical and democratic perspective. The low participation of some advisors and, in general, the category in CRESS / RN, despite its objective conditions, is a reality and it is presented to us as a challenge to future managements and policy consolidation to society. Inasmuch as the category intends to guarantee the high quality of its social workers, the demands of future counselors, their skills and abilities in dealing with regulatory issues, administrative policies that pervade the everyday life of CRESS / RN are necessary

Instrumentalidade do serviço social na previdência social no Brasil contemporâneo

In the sociability of the capital, the challenges to the consolidation of social security as a public policy become expressive, which has implications for social security services, particularly for Social Works who works for the security and fulfillment of social rights. Therefore, in this context of denial of these rights becomes relevant the work of social worker, as a professional committed to the ethical-political project and the Matrix Theory and Methodology of Social work, which potentiate the action able to establish professional articulated strategies for the strengthening of collective struggles for equality in society. Thus, this study examines the instrumentality of social work in the contemporary world and its contribution to the realization of rights. For this, we conducted a literature review, using authors dealing with the issue, as Behring (2008), Boschetti (2003), Mota (1995), Guerra (2007) among others, as well as documentary research through laws, decrees, instructions Normative, Internal Guidelines, and especially the analysis of the Matrix itself of Social Work in welfare. We use also of paramount importance to our analysis - the field research, using techniques such as semi-structured interview and questionnaire. The research enables the identification of important aspects of the subject studied, as the understanding of professionals about the instrumentality of Social Works in its ethical-political aspects, both theoretical and methodological and technicaloperative. The demands made by the managers for the profession on the sociooccupational have extrapolated the powers and duties of the Law Regulating the Profession and the Matrix of Social Work in welfare. The subjects of this study emphasize the role of social category of the National Institute of Social Security and the Federal Council of Social Service in defense of Social Works.

A política de assistência estudantil no contexto de expansão do ensino superior: as particularidades do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Serviço Social da UFRN

A dissertação versa sobre a Política de Assistência Estudantil e o processo de luta pela democratização do acesso à universidade, no contexto de expansão do ensino superior em tempos de crise estrutural do capital. Apresenta como unidade de análise as particularidades da pós-graduação em Serviço Social da UFRN e tem como objetivo principal apreender e analisar as condições de permanência disponibilizadas pela UFRN aos discentes de pós-graduação no contexto de expansão do Ensino Superior. O percurso teórico-metodológico de análise adotado na pesquisa se fundamentou numa perspectiva crítica do objeto de estudo a partir de uma concepção de totalidade, que pressupõe apreender as determinações socioeconômicas e políticas que incidem sobre a política de ensino superior e as condições de vida dos discentes do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Serviço Social (PPGSS). As análises fundamentaram-se em pesquisa bibliográfica como base teórico-metodológica da investigação, articulada com as reflexões que resultaram dos dados empíricos da pesquisa de campo na perspectiva de apreensão do objeto, em sua densidade histórica e num quadro de múltiplas determinações. Do ponto de vista metodológico foram entrevistados 26 discentes e realizada análise documental referentes a leis e documentos da política educacional em nível federal e dos organismos internacionais. A luta por ampliação do acesso à universidade está na agenda dos movimentos sociais no âmbito da educação, no entanto na conjuntura dos governos de Luis Inácio Lula da Silva (2003 a 2010) e Dilma Rousseff (2011 a 2012) a tendência tem sido seguir as orientações dos organismos internacionais e promover expansão de vagas sem assegurar estratégias de permanência compatíveis com as exigências de excelência acadêmica postas, por exemplo, na pós-graduação. Discentes entrevistados acessam o ensino superior e os cursos de pós-graduação e vivenciam dificuldades diárias para atender com qualidade às exigências acadêmicas em face de suas condições materiais de vida e de trabalho e dos limites da política de assistência estudantil que tem um perfil de programas e ações localizadas

O Serviço Social e a exclusão/inclusão social dos portadores de HIV/AIDS :demandas e desafios nos hospitais públicos

This research presents the labors developed by the Social Service unto socially excluded HIV/Aids positives at public hospitals in Rio Grande do Norte (RN). It purposes to identify and to analyze the demands brought by the holder onto the Social Service professional as well as the challenges the latter face to minister to the former. It privileges, from the methodological viewpoint, the qualitative and quantitative analysis with the application of questionnaires, direct observation, semi-structured interviews and bibliographic references. Data were collected from 12 (twelve) social assistants who work at Giselda Trigueiro Hospital in Natal (7) and Rafael Fernandes Hospital in Mossoró (5). The central hypothesis that guided this study is that the social inclusion/exclusion process experienced by the HIV/Aids positive on society implies a demand for the Social Service that is inserted in the public health context (specially in HIV-referred public hospitals), whose agents, however, when attempting to answer those demands, meet obstacles due to both the precariousness of public health services and the social complexity that concerns the HIV/Aids epidemic. Results point out that, de facto, the HIV/Aids epidemic, because of the social exclusion/inclusion process to which the holder is subject results a demand for the social agents at hospitals. Demands rise principally from the patient s life condition, considering the increasing pauperization in the epidemic context. As to what it is concerned, social assistants, responding to the needs, come across concrete twofold challenges: the illness in itself, for all social, negative aspects that make part of quotidian life of holders; and the precarious state of the public health service in RN State, since that working conditions are unsatisfactory

O Serviço social nas organizações não-governamentais: tendências e particularidades

The present study is about the professional exercise of the Social Worker in ONGs associated with the ABONG in Natal city, state of Rio Grande do Norte, referring to the work conditions, claims and professional responses in front of the capital restructuration circumstances. The group of socio-historical transformations, as a result of the after-1970 dynamic capitalism, conducts a process of new configurations in the relationship between State and society that directly affect the social question nowadays, destroying social rights historically conquered for the workers. In this context, the ONGs assume a strategical social function of the social question, contributing with the change of responsibilities with the social from the State to the third sector. This social movement causes changes to the Social Work since this is one of the professions that act on the immediate expressions of the social question. After a qualitative research based on a theoricalmethodological critical and dialectical perspective, it was possible to discover some contradictions, details and tendencies of the professional exercise of the Social Worker in ONGs. Summarizing, the results of the research show that: a) it was detected a tendency of precarization, instability, insecurity, no-articulation, no-profissionalization of the professionals in the work conditions; b) demands are associated with a moment of the capital re-ordering, where new professional exigencies and responsibilities are related with capital necessities in the period of structural crisis; c) limits and contradictions are present in a professional daily work mainly in function of the characteristics of gestation and functioning of the ONGs; d) the professionals that were interviewed show significant difficulties in a articulation between the professional daily work in organizations and the totality of the social processes, limiting the capability of doing critics to the requisitions imposed by the capital
