Beschreibung

Seminar paper from the year 2008 in the subject Social Work, grade: 1,0, University of Kassel, course: Einführung in die Methoden Sozialer Arbeit, language: English, abstract: Professional social work in its various forms addresses the diverse, complex relationships between people and their environment. It represents a whole network of values, theories and practice (cf. IFSW) and is as diverse as the lifeworld of people themselves. With the book "Sozialpädagogisches Können. Ein Lehrbuch zur multiperspektivischen Fallarbeit" (Social Pedagogical Skills: A Textbook on Multi-Perspective Casework), first published in 1993, Burkhard Müller intends to show that the diversity of social work can be ordered in a relatively clear pattern. He calls this pattern multi-perspective casework. Whether this method succeeds in structuring the complexity of social pedagogical action through the case-related processing of the levels and phases named by Müller and making them transparent for the person acting is the central question of this paper. The case perspectives and the work phases of multi-perspective approaches are to be explained in the paper. The extent to which this is a method that takes into account the complex conditions of social work as well as the specific legal requirements of the Child and Youth Welfare Act will be shown using the example of support planning. Finally, a conclusion and an assessment of the effectiveness of this model as a method of social work will follow.
