| Résumé : |
The social workers' practice enables us to analyse the interferences between the private sector and the public space. These professionals, commissioned by their organizations, are representative of the public power. They intervene in the privacy of families who suffer great psychological and social distress. Their intervention gives rise to a new space, a
hybrid, an in-between, which belongs both to the private space (one must talk about oneself, unveil what is usually kept secret) and to the public space (the collective one controlled by the law and social norms). On this stage, each one plays a part and uses strategic means; the user tries to protect his private life which is strongly threatened, the professional must respond to the demand of his organization. The user's suffering, expression of intimacy, undergoes a change which infers the construction of a new subject: the "social case". This "bureaucratie" subject justifies the existence and perpetuation of the organisation. |
