Abstract
The purpose of this concept paper is to reframe the nature of obligation in social work from one externally derived from situational and societal expectations to one which is intrinsic to human sociality and to the helping relationship. The implications of concepts of relations and membership, as foundations for ethical thinking in social work are explored. Implicit in these concepts is a picture of human good, the good life, the worth of the person, the normative nature of all relations, and thus, the inherently normative in social work as professional activity.
