Social work is concerned with change in social interaction and social relationships. Social relationships are diverse in both nature and structure. This unit considers the multi–dimensional concept of ‘social relationship’ and the change process. The unit will consider ‘change’ in interpersonal, group, organisational and institutional contexts and the role of social work and the social worker in this process. Issues of control and responsibility in the change process will be considered.
