O korzyściach płynących z wykorzystania elementów mediacji w obszarze interwencji kryzysowej

Abstract

The area of social support, especially in overcoming crises and the availability of social services, is undergoing continuous development in Poland. In recent years, much attention has been paid to strengthening the availability of crisis intervention and mediation services. Both services have many references in common, as well as the potential to complement each other. The aim of this paper is to analyse the potential which may be connected with using elements of mediation in the practice of those institutions of the social assistance system which deal with crisis intervention. Interdisciplinary reflection on the common features of crisis intervention and mediation leads to the conclusion that both fields, despite noticeable differences, have to some extent convergent goals and assumptions, and what is more, they are based on similar scopes of knowledge, mainly from the field of psychology and social work. Moreover, they can complement each other and complement aid processes.

The Dynamic Nature of the Common Good as a Rudimentary Condition for Maintaining Social Resilience

“…14 The survival of a social system is not associated with routine and stagnation, but with longterm learning and acquiring the ability to temporarily adapt to changing environmental conditions, quickly find a way out of a crisis situation and return to the original state, but at a higher level. 15 This can happen in social life through synergies with digital systems. Resilience therefore points to the potentiality of social systems (subsystems) and their ability to survive in even the most crisislike conditions, such as the Covid19 pandemic.…”
