The conservative confrontation of the “social question” and challenges to Social Work in Brazil

Abstract:

Based on the analysis of the growing social inequality in world capitalism and in Brazil, I try to locate some of the main features of the recent conjuncture in the country that advances in the neoliberal counter-reforms, especially in the proposals of counter-reform of social security at the Federal level and in fiscal adjustment programs in the states, harshly impacting Brazilian workers as well as social workers as part of this contingent.

Keywords:
Neoliberalism; Social inequality; Social service
