  1. AREA OF CONCENTRATION
  Social Issues, Territory, Social Policies and Social Work   The debate today on social work and even in the field of public policy and management needs to consider the diversity and particularity that spatial differences will impose on contemporary processes of capitalist accumulation and its impact on the settings of the social issue. The social issue and how it is fought through the policies mediated in its local expressions constitutes the pivotal point of approaches both to the study of politics and public administration and in relation to relevant discussions to the professional work of Social Work and social courses.
