Abstract

This article points out the need and relevance of rethinking and questioning the notion of "development"– as a binding element- from a critical and integrationist theorizing, that come from the Social Work education. It aims to appeal to its meaning and implications for the profession; it alludes to a broader process than referring to a mere economic growth as the determiner or ground basis. This view tries to find an opportunity for realization in the political sphere, seen as the occupation that is developed with the consciousness of "the collective" in the interest of a certain integration. This usually occurs through social policy. Thus, the policy exists because no social order is based on nature; hence, the absence of social order is what makes it possible, because it is the dispute over visibility of the part that has no part within the whole community. This represents an enormous challenge for the Social Work profession. However, the construction of academic policies that bring an epistemic and ontological critical turn on complexity and problematization, require to create new thinking maps and expand the reflection toward other conundrums from the vita contemplative and vita activa. Similarly, it urges to educate intellectual professionals through the politicization of the education, encouragement of leadership and recapture of the capacity to be astonished in decentration of the subject, and consideration of the multiple manifestations derived from the authentic experiences of thinking ego´s.
