La lección de Parménides y el trabajo social. Sobre la rentabilidad intelectual de los dominios menores

Abstract

This task rebuilds the results in social work in France of May '68. The point is to make a study about relations among intellectuals in political environments and professional environments. For that, and being supported in a filing searching (that includes all publications of social work of the age) and in interviews with the most outstanding professionals and intellectuals, the professional context is reconstructed, then the intellectual context and finally the trajectories of the main agents. This issue concludes demonstrating the paradoxical effects of such happening in the intellectual reflections on social work. In one side it was useful to clear up a problem about the intellectual critics in France. On the other hand, it allowed social work (not at all a legitimate discipline) to become a place of intellectual energies investment. (English) [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
