“…Det, at anvende medarbejdere som gatekeepere, der kan have en omsorgsrolle overfor børnene/de unge, betyder, at gatekeeperen kender det enkelte barn/den unge ganske godt, og deres relation kan betyde, at barnet/den unge føler sig forpligtet til at deltage i et interview, selvom barnet/den unge ikke ønsker det. Rekrutteringstilgangen -isaer på den sikrede institution og udslusnings faengslet -kan derfor udfordre den frivillige deltagelse i undersøgelsen (Müller et al, 2022). En anden udfordring, affødt af vores rekrutteringsstrategi, er, at det er svaert at sikre lokal anonymisering (Nespor, 2000), når gatekeeperne, vi benyttede for at få adgang til børnene/de unge, selvsagt ved, hvem der har deltaget i undersøgelsen.…”

“…Der udover kan der opstå rekrutteringsbias, hvis gatekeeperne udvaelger børn og unge, de betragter som saerligt velegnede til at indgå i en interviewsituation, f.eks. fordi deres situation er saeregen (Müller et al, 2022). I bestraebelserne på at minimere udfordringerne ved vores rekrutteringsstrategi og med øje for vores målgruppes sårbarhed, valgte vi både at indhente samtykke hos interviewpersonen selv og dennes foraeldre.…”

In Denmark, juveniles (aged 15-17) – like adults – are required to repay the Treasury for necessary expenses incurred in the processing of their criminal cases. However, data from the Danish National Police and the Danish Debt Collection Agency indicate that juveniles often lack the means to repay these debts and are therefore indebted as they enter adulthood. This article examines the psychological impact of debt on juveniles deprived of their liberty and the impact debt has on their ability to establish a ‘normal’ adult life. Linking the concept of ‘emerging adulthood’ to the literature on ‘debt as a risk factor’ provides a theoretical basis for the analysis and for the discussion of human rights. The article argues that neglecting the distinctive vulnerabilities of juveniles in the assessment of legal costs may obstruct their rehabilitation and violate their human rights.

“…This indigenous notion is the basis of the formulation of an ethical framework for working with indigenous communities. Thus, an ethical practice should be grounded on building and gaining relationships of trust (Müller et al, 2022). According to Doran (2021), a relational approach to the ethics of practice centers on social justice.…”

Islamophobia is rooted in racism and is a type of racism that targets expressions of Muslimness or perceived Muslimness" (All Party Parliamentary Group on British Muslims, 2018, p. 50). With the alarming rise of populist Islamophobic sentiments across the Global North, Islamophobia represents a significant ethical issue of our times. Social workers are implicated in this form of racism due to factors including state-driven anti-terrorist legislation that co-opt social workers in the supposed 'war on terror,' frontline work with children and families of newcomers with refugee status, many of whom are recent arrivals from Muslim majority countries; as well as members of the public who internalize misperceptions of Islam and Muslims. Social work ethics articulated within the liberal enlightenment traditions and found in the Canadian Association of Social Work, are also colonial in nature and therefore limited in their ability to counter Islamophobia. As a result,

“…Academic researchers have relative security and advantages that derive from the institutions where they work that are not usually enjoyed by those with whom they collaborate (Routledge, 2004). In social work research, recognition of the vulnerability and social positions of research participants is of paramount importance (Müller et al, 2020).…”

In research with children, particularly those in contact with social and health services, researchers face ethical challenges and have stringent ethical obligations. One obligation regards the need for researchers to adopt a reflexive approach to considering how children's perspectives and experiences are represented. In this paper, the nature of child-researcher relationships and researchers' positions are examined to further understanding of how to account for the impact of contexts on meaning making in research with children. An integrative literature review of articles concerned with child protection identified a paucity of researcher accounts of reflexivity. The review articles containing reflections on the role of social positions and relationship are analysed using Pierre Bourdieu's notions of epistemic reflexivity. Bourdieu conceives of research relationships as social relationships, where the personal history of the researched and researcher and their social positions affect research processes. Integration of Bourdieu's theory with the strategies described in the identified articles provides a provisional four-dimensional approach to reflexivity, that researchers could usefully apply in future research. Further reflexivity in social-work research with children is called for, so that understanding of the possible dimensions of reflexivity are extended.
