Abstract

The article examines the features of the historical development of social work in Germany. In the XIX century where the health of German citizens was seen more than a social value. By the middle of the XX century. Anglo-American methods of social work, which are still considered classical, became widespread in Germany. Most schools of social work were founded by the church and gave women a clearly defined mission within ideological and social goals, as women were seen as a natural and traditional embodiment of charity. In the 1970s, there was a rethinking of social work in Germany due to the fact that scientists and practitioners concluded that the use of classical methods of social work was insufficient, as well as the use of therapeutic tools in cases of coverage and solution in were generally seen as insufficient. In the scientific world of Germany there were discussions about the benefits of systemic approaches in social work. Today, the mission of social work is to enable people to maximize their potential, enrich their lives and prevent dysfunction. Professional social work is aimed at protecting people, solving their problems and social transformations in society. The development of social pedagogy as a science and an independent branch of knowledge and practical activity of social work in Germany is studied. Thus, for the successful development of the system of professional training of social workers in social protection of rights in Ukraine, young professionals need to research and use international experience.
