Abstract
This chapter is a theoretical study that analyses Brazilian critical social work, its historical constitution, its possibilities, its historical limits and current challenges. It presents the Latin American Social Work Reconceptualization Movement (1965–1975) and the Social Work Renewal process in Brazil (1964–1985), as constitutive of the socio-political and -cultural basis of critical social work. It shows how critical social work is objectified in the contours of professional dynamics, expressing a conception of profession, known as the ethical-political project in Brazil. We highlight the challenges of this project, in the face of the advance of conservatism and reactionary times on a planetary scale today.
