The book is devoted to the question: What can be done by schools, students or social work graduates in a postmodern society to ensure that people accept the notion that social work can offer them the expert assistance in solving the problems which the established, institutionalized, disciplines are not concerned? The first part of the book includes a notion of institutionalisation of social work in the postmodern context. The second part presents several studies of social work education in the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Pollen. The authors gather their findings in the areas of intercultural, participative creation of cognition and situational negotiation, which are relevant from the point of view of theoretical notion of postmodern institutionalisation of social work.
