Abstract
La crisis estructural del capital y el avance de la ofensiva neoliberal
ha traído consigo cambios importantes en la manera como el Estado
enfrenta la “cuestión social”. Esto necesariamente ha afectado el quehacer
del Trabajo Social como profesión encargada de la implementación de las
políticas sociales como respuestas fragmentadas a las expresiones de la
“cuestión social”, que se han diversificado y profundizado con la estrategia neoliberal. Así mismo, estos procesos han afectado la formación y las
condiciones laborales de los y las profesionales que ejercen el Trabajo
Social. En este capítulo se presenta cómo fue el avance de la ofensiva
neoliberal en Colombia y sus repercusiones en la profesión en los últimos
cuarenta años, a su vez, se hace referencia a los debates profesionales
y los procesos organizativos gremiales y académicos que se gestaron en
este periodo de tiempo, planteándose algunos aportes para pensar el
proceso de renovación crítica del Trabajo Social en Colombia.
The structural crisis of capital and the advance of the neoliberal offensive has brought with it important changes in the way the State faces the “social question”. This necessarily has also affected Social Work as a profession, mainly in charge of the implementation of social policies, as fragmented responses to expressions of the “social question”, which have been diversified and deepened with the neoliberal strategy. Likewise, these processes have affected the training and working conditions of professionals who practice Social Work. This chapter presents how the neoliberal offensive progressed in Colombia and its repercussions on the profession in the last forty years. Also, reference is made to the professional debates and the union and academic organizational processes that took place in this period of time, considering some contributions to think about the process of critical renewal of Social Work in Colombia.
