Resumo: This article develops a conceptual perspective of how the society of risk, in the context of disorganized capitalism and modernity, revises the thinking and activity of Social Work and the consequences of this revision for the agency of a social worker. The agency of a social worker is understood as a capacity of a reflective subject who, in the act of participating in social regulation of the Welfare-State, can analyze the strategic direction that is undertaken, using the theory of emancipation as criteria. The theory of emancipation allows reconsidering the construction of citizenship based on social regulation of the State, which is a dialectic process that has immanent limitations and possibilities for human emancipation. Here is where the creative potential of agency is inscribed. Never a given, it is built among countless intersubjective factors of an economic, political and cultural nature.

A agência do assistente social é concebida enquanto capacidade de um sujeito reflexivo que, no acto de participar da regulação social do Estado-Providência, pode problematizar sobre a direcção estratégica que imprime, tendo como critério uma teoria da emancipação. A teoria da emancipação permite repensar a construção da cidadania a partir da regulação social do Estado, a qual constitui um processo dialéctico que tem imanentes constrangimentos e possibilidades de emancipação humana. Aí se inscreve o potencial criativo da agência, que não é nunca um dado, ela constrói-se por entre uma incomensurabilidade de factores intersubjectivos, de natureza económica, política e cultural.Revista KatálysisRevista KatálysisRevista Katálysis2005-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/katalysis/article/view/610810.1590/%xRevista Katálysis; Vol. 8 No. 2 (2005): Serviço Social: contribuições analíticas sobre o exercício profissional; 167-184Revista Katálysis; Vol. 8 Núm. 2 (2005): Serviço Social: contribuições analíticas sobre o exercício profissional; 167-184Revista Katálysis; v. 8 n. 2 (2005): Serviço Social: contribuições analíticas sobre o exercício profissional; 167-1841982-02591414-4980reponame:Revista Katálysis (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/katalysis/article/view/6108/5669Copyright (c) 2020 Maria Helena Nunesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessNunes, Maria Helena2022-11-21T14:18:18Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/6108Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/katalysis/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/katalysis/oairevistakatalysis@gmail.com || kataly@cse.ufsc.br || revistakatalysis@hotmail.com1982-02591414-4980opendoar:2022-11-21T14:18:18Revista Katálysis (Online) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false
