This is the first book that examines healthy human relationships in post-apartheid South Africa. In contemporary South Africa, human relationships are under considerable threat. Despite the 1994 commitment to an inclusive and human-rights-based democracy, human relationships remain strained. Bearing in mind South Africa's tortuous and divisive past, this book brings to light many issues, prospects and challenges with regard to the promotion of healthy human relationships after apartheid ended. Social work and social development perspectives are central to the issues that are raised in this volume. The profession of social work has always championed the centrality of human relationships, being less interested in the internal functioning of people and more interested in their interpersonal functioning within broader structures and forces, including social justice, building people's strengths and capabilities, anti-discrimination, diversity and empowerment. This edited book is based on select papers presented at a social work conference in 2019 that was co-hosted by the Department of Social Development at the University of Cape Town and the Association of South African Social Work Education Institutions. In the chapters, the contributors offer some solutions to the ubiquitous societal ills that emanate from either corrosive or broken human relationships: Resurgent racism in post-apartheid South Africa and the need to promote healthy human relationships Promoting healthy human relationships with sub-Saharan African immigrants and South Africans Promoting family and human relationships in a traumatised society Social policy, social welfare, social security and legislation in promoting healthy human relationships in post-apartheid South Africa Social protection as a tool to promote healthy human relationships in South Africa Promoting Healthy Human Relationships in Post-Apartheid South Africa is an essential resource for an international audience of scholars, policy-makers, and social work and social development practitioners, legislators and students.

In the present study, our attention turned to understanding the objective and subjective conditions of the work process of social workers in social entities in the municipality of Bebedouro. Professional action has already been the object of analysis in several studies, however, less often it seeks to investigate the real working conditions that the Social Worker encounters in his professional routine. Our analysis seeks to understand the work process of Social Work in social entities in order to discard a priori, both the fatalistic tendency that considers the professional space with insurmountable limits, and the messianic tendency that considers the social worker to be an independent professional, with almost autonomy to develop proposals that transform reality, disregarding the true professional insertion in the concrete reality. The two approaches, both fatalistic and messianic, do not reveal social historicity from the realization of men, the particularities of the profession and the elements that make it unique in a given historical moment and in each work process. We then try to answer: who are the professionals who are in the social entities? What are the objective and subjective conditions of professional action in this workspace? What is revealed behind everyday life, what is significant beyond everyday repetition? Our research universe was made up of all social entities regularly registered with the Municipal Council of Social Assistance - CMAS in 2008.
