中国专业社会工作的发展经历了20多年的时间,但较多的成果则是从2006年中共十六届六中全会做出“建设宏大的社会工作人才队伍”的战略部署之后才涌现的。通过对2007-2014年间中国社会工作研究相关文献的梳理,笔者发现8年来中国社会工作研究总体上呈现出了快速的增长势头,在实务研究领域不断深化和拓展的同时,社会工作理论研究也取得了长足的进步。但无论是社会工作实务研究还是理论研究,相较于整个社会科学研究而言,中国社会工作研究整体水平仍然还存在较大的提升空间。
China Social Work has been in existence over 20 years, however, the major achievements are made the decision of "building of great talent teams in Social Work" on the Sixth Plenary Session of the Sixteenth CPC. According to the literature review from 2007-2014 on China Social Work research, we find that there is a rapid growth in recent years. Notably, there is an improvement on practical research: on the other hand, theoretical research has also made remarkable progress. But either social practical research or theoretical research is still in bad need of betterment when compared to the status quo of the Social Science Research.
