In the historical process, sport has emerged as a practice tool used in the social work profession and discipline in order to eliminate and solve the negative effects of the problems caused by various social changes. In the literature, various criticisms have been brought about sport and its use as a practice tool in solving various social problems. However, it is seen that important evidence about its power and potential has been revealed.
The social work perspective emphasizes the focus on the strengths of individuals, groups and communities that are focused. Therefore, it can be stated that focusing on the strengths and potentials of sports as a practice tool would be more compatible with the doctrine of social work. In this context, this review article aims to examine the strengths and potential of sports as an practice tool, which is a forgotten heritage for the social work profession and discipline. In order to realize this aim, current studies in this context are discussed in the literature.

Jane Addams'ın Unutulan Mirasını Hatırlamak: Sosyal Hizmet Uygulaması Bağlamında Sporun Gücü ve Potansiyeli Üzerine Bir Değerlendirme

Öz

Tarihsel süreçte spor, çeşitli sosyal değişimlerin yarattığı problemlerin olumsuz etkilerinin giderilmesi ve çözümü amacıyla sosyal hizmet meslek ve disiplininde kullanılmış bir müdahale aracı olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Literatürde spora ve sporun çeşitli sosyal sorunların çözümünde bir müdahale aracı olarak kullanılmasına ilişkin çeşitli eleştiriler olsa da gücü ve potansiyeline ilişkin önemli kanıtların ortaya konduğu görülmektedir. Sosyal hizmet bakış açısı, odağa alınan bireylerin, grupların ve toplumların güçlü yanlarına odaklanmayı vurgular. Bu sebeple bir müdahale aracı olarak sporun da güçlü yönlerine ve potansiyeline odaklanmanın, sosyal hizmet öğretisiyle daha uyumlu olacağı ifade edilebilir. Bu bağlamda çalışma, sosyal hizmet mesleği ve disiplini için unutulmuş bir miras olan sporun bir müdahale aracı olarak güçlü yanlarını ve potansiyelini literatürde yer alan güncel çalışmalardan hareketle incelemektedir.
