Abstrakt: |
Professional organizations aim to strengthen and protect the professions they serve. However, organizations can also behave in hegemonic ways, eroding specializations and advancing a policy agenda without critical member input. Exploring issues of power and inclusion is essential not only for the survival and stability of the organization, but also for ensuring that the organization's actions are consistent with its values and ethics. The Illinois chapter of NASW disregarded stakeholders and minoritized voices, as well as organizational values and ethics, when it recently lobbied for a bill (S.B. 2071) that would eliminate graduate level specialized training for the post-master's professional educator license. As we consider the role of organizations and the unique features of the school social work specialization, we will analyze these issues through the framework of master narratives that advance hegemonic notions that disregard inclusion and counter narratives as a form of resistance that attend to issues of power and oppression.
