FEMİNİST GRUP ÇALIŞMASI: TEMELİ, KAPSAMI VE SÜRECİ

Feminizm ve sosyal hizmet felsefeleri ve uygulamaları itibariyle birbirini bütünler olarak nitelendirilmektedir. Çünkü hem feminizmin hem de sosyal hizmetin temelinde “güçlendirme yaklaşımı”, “adalet”, “hakların kullanımı” gibi kavramlar bulunmaktadır. Feminist sosyal hizmet uygulamaları ise dar anlamıyla bireysel olarak sadece kadın hareketlerinin, geniş anlamıyla yaşanan her türlü baskıyla mücadeleye karşıt olarak geliştirilen mikro- mezzo ve makro çabaların bir bütünü olarak değerlendirilmektedir.Bu değerlendirmeden yola çıkarak, yapılmış olan bu çalışma, hem bir teorinin kuramsal olarak bir bütün halinde ele alınmasını, hem de feminist teorinin sosyal hizmet uygulamasına aktarılarak daha iyi özümsenmesini sağlamayı amaçlamaktadır.Belirtilen amaçlar doğrultusunda yapılmış olan bu çalışmada feminist teorinin kapsamı ve içeriği, feminist teorinin perspektifleri, feminist sosyal hizmet uygulaması ve feminist sosyal hizmet uygulaması kapsamında grup çalışmasının nasıl yapılandırılması gerektiği konusunda açıklamalarda bulunulmuştur.

In the strict sense, feminist social work practices are based only on women; on the other hand, broader sense of feminism depends on efforts of opposed all kind of pressures micro, mezzo and makro level of practices.Based on this assesment, the study aims to evaluate the theory as a whole and contributes to better integration of feminist theory into social work practice.This study argues that the scope and content of feminist theory, perspectives of feminist theory and how to configure group work within the scope of feminist social work practice are important.
