The home visit in child protection social work: Emotion as resource and risk for professional judgement and practice

This article conceptualises the role of emotion in social work home visits. It draws on findings from a qualitative study of initial child protection home visits in the United Kingdom. The research used narrative interviews and focus groups to examine how emotions arising from visits were registered in social workers' narratives. These visits were often challenging; social workers needed to manage their own emotions and those of the family, while at the same time investigating concerns and assessing need. This article identifies seven key emotional experiences associated with the home visit from the perspective of the social worker: going into the unknown; being intrusive; being disliked; fear of harm to self; fear of causing or allowing harm; pain, disgust, and distress; and “absorbing” emotion. It is argued that emotion plays a central role in home visiting and that professionals' emotional responses have important implications for the way they make sense of, and manage, home visits. Emotion is therefore conceptualized as both a potential resource and risk for social workers' professional judgement and practice.     

论西北地区资源开发与生态环境保护的制度建设

脆弱的生态环境是制约西北地区发展的首要因素,而传统的生产经营模式必将进一步加剧生态环境的破坏,必须放弃。西北地区资源开发与生态环境治理之间形成尖锐矛盾的深层次原因在于人与人之间的利益分配和责任分担失衡,即具有有限理性的利益主体以社会公众和他人利益为代价来换取自身利益最大化,但却不承担相应的社会责任。因此,要促使西北地区生产经营方式发生根本性转变,就必须以利益调整为核心,以生态环境保护主体的行为特点为逻辑起点,以切实可行的成本机制和激励机制为根本措施和有力保障。     

Every child matters: a legal perspective

Recent legal and policy changes, including the introduction of the Human Rights Act, provide the context for the new child welfare and protection policies proposed for England. These proposals are discussed from a legal perspective in relation to early and coordinated intervention, sharing information between agencies and with children and families, partnership with children, information management, and structural and legal change. Consideration is also given to issues overlooked by the Green Paper, such as immigration and asylum, youth justice and the whole family justice system. The discussion concludes by arguing for the need for integrating cultural and structural change and for leadership (and investment of resources) across government to achieve such goals.

“绿箱”措施与农业保护政策的调整

农业的弱势地位及其面临的风险决定了各国需要对其进行适当的保护。"绿箱"措施因其是免于削减的项目而日益成为许多国家农业保护政策的重点。我国已承诺在加入WTO后开放国内农产品市场,过去依赖高关税、复杂的非关税的保护措施将被逐步取消,因此,我国政府对农业的支持应调整为以"绿箱"措施为重点。但是"绿箱"措施的运用在管理体制和支持结构上还存在许多问题。因此,加强和完善"绿箱"措施,将是我国农业保护政策调整的基本方向。
