peer agreement (net): +1"social space orientation" Explanation: This seems to be one of the popular ways to render this in English: "In the German tradition of social work, the idea of social spaces (Sozialräume) became a significant conceptual reference since the early 1990s. Starting with the seminal work “Pädagogik des Jugendraums” by Böhnisch/Münchmeier (1990) a variety of approaches based on the concept of social spaces were developed in social work debates around theory and practice. Meanwhile, after some years of discussion the idea of a “social space orientation” (Sozialraumorientierung) can meanwhile be regarded a paradigm in social work in Germany (Spatscheck 2009)." The discourse within social work currently follows two different understandings of social spaces. One group of researchers regards social spaces as fields for processes of acquirement, learning and active participation for local inhabitants and began to develop concepts around youth work, social development and a variety of other different fields of social work (Deinet 2009). This approach follows the concept to discover, analyse and shape social spaces in order to create social conditions that enable processes of social development (Deinet 2006; Deinet/Krisch 2006; Deinet/Reutlinger 2004; Böhnisch/Münchmeier 1990). The other group of researchers views social spaces from a background of community development and an interest for modernisation of public welfare institutions and searches for possibilities for improved ooperation, flexibility and citizen participation in the creation of social services (Hinte 2006; Budde/Früchtel/Hinte 2006; Kleve 2007b; 2008). http://www.soch.lu.se/images/Socialhogskolan/WP2009_1.pdf Or: "In recent years, professional debates about youth work have been dominated by the following three issues and approaches. Firstly, there can be seen a special professional interest around the spatial approach to youth work, also referred as social-space orientation. {..} this approach follows ecological concepts that look beyond individuals or groups and stresses the meaning of local social spaces as a key field for youth work practice and research. Like all institutions, groups and individuals, youth work and young people too are inseparably connected to social environments...." From: The History of Youth Work in Europe: Relevance for Today's Youth Work Policy by Youth Partnership (Organization) http://books.google.com/books?id=xYWxQUNAuCUC&pg=PA100&lpg=P... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2012-05-01 22:25:11 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Suggested translation (I am not exactly sure what "Fachpolitik" would be in English.) "This program contributed to the principles of social space orientation being adopted by/introduced into/finding their way into other specialized policies." Well, for British English you need to add "me" to "program" and replace "z" by "s" in specialize, I assume. |
