Abstract

This article problematizes the question for whom do we write social workers? From Social Work, it has been central to place oneself in the knowledge generation spaces for intervention, to influence various contexts and fields of knowledge. However, today, from the construction of the disciplinary theoretical corpus, the interpellation regarding the audiences and the office of producing knowledge arises, through a documentary review we illuminate the arguments of this search. The findings indicate that the discipline must move towards situated knowledge that recursively nourish the profession from a research and intervention perspective, incorporating various views and open epistemologies based on a discipline that seeks to contribute to the state of the art, but at the same time to audiences in contexts unpublished, both for social workers located in the field of action, and for the subjects that they accompany in complex and emerging social relationships.
