Understanding social justice in social work A content analysis of course syllabi / [electronic resource] : Philip Young P. Hong, PhD, David R. Hodge, PhD. - pp. 212-219.
In spite of the importance of social justice to the profession of social work, little research exists on the topic, contributing to what some have called a “conceptual muddle.” To help clarify the professions understanding of social justice, this study analyzed a representative sample of social justice syllabi (N=31). To analyze the textual data, keyword, cluster, and linking analyses were preformed. The findings suggest that (a) some groups and issues are highlighted at the expense of others and (b) a four-dimensional conceptualization of social justice may be embedded in course syllabi, implicitly informing professional discourse. The results are discussed in light of recent professional controversies related to social justice.
