youth work and social pedagogy

call to overturn 'professional bunkers'  and for a new type of generic worker - social pedagogue.

some questions:

  • how will specialism be handled? will a distinctive notion of the youth worker remain?

  • to what extent is social pedagogy a professionalised discourse - and how will it fit within social and religious movements?

  • which model of social pedagogy will be drawn upon - the older, german model of education for sociality or newer models of 'educare'?
