ABSTRACT This study focuses on incorporating the field of Caritas Theory (from German “Caritaswissenschaft”), which concentrates on the theological reflection of Christian charity, into study programs in social work. First, the article reflects on the study plans of relevant programs at pertinent universities in the European 10 Union. It distinguishes these as to whether they directly contain the study of Caritas Theory or of particular theological themes. It describes the origin of the field, which differs from Catholic Social Thought, and the current discourses within the field taking place in English as well as several other European languages (German, Spanish, Czech, Polish, Hungarian). Finally, it systematizes, reflects on, and evaluates the relationship of the field to education in social work. The basic criterion is the actual contribution of Caritas Theory for studying social work. The study identifies overall four concepts of the relationship of this field to social work – the conception of “Christian social work,” the complementary model, the conception of structural similarity, and the transdisciplinary approach. According to the study, only two of these, however, fulfill the criterion of an actual contribution to studying social work.

“明爱理论”作为社会工作教育中的神学话语?

摘要 本研究的重点是将明爱理论(来自德语“Caritaswissenschaft”)领域,该领域专注于基督教慈善的神学反思,纳入社会工作的研究计划。首先,文章反思了欧盟10国相关大学相关专业的学习计划。它区分这些是直接包含对明爱理论的研究还是对特定神学主题的研究。它描述了该领域的起源,该领域不同于天主教社会思想,以及该领域当前以英语和其他几种欧洲语言(德语、西班牙语、捷克语、波兰语、匈牙利语)进行的话语。最后,它系统化、反思和评估了该领域与社会工作教育的关系。基本标准是明爱理论对研究社会工作的实际贡献。该研究确定了该领域与社会工作关系的四个概念——“基督教社会工作”的概念、互补模型、结构相似性的概念和跨学科方法。然而,根据这项研究,其中只有两个符合对研究社会工作的实际贡献的标准。
