Abstract

In this text, we argue for critical reflexivity regarding ‘global social policy studies’, focusing on the pitfalls of forms of historical presentism and Eurocentrism, not least in terms of a profound silence about colonialism, culminating in a ‘view from above or from nowhere’. We explore the importance of historical legacies of historical socialist worldbuilding projects and the complexities of so-called ‘transition’ in liminal, peripheral, spaces. The text is structured around four interlinked dialogues and reflections: on the nature of our critique of Global Social Policy as an emergent field; on understanding the unfolding dynamics of social policy in the Global East; on the importance of decolonial histories and historiographies as a way of overcoming the profound ‘presentism’ of Global Social Policy and, finally, on the possibilities of articulating a Global Social Policy ‘otherwise’ and an ethics of translation.
走向全球社会政策:非殖民化、社会主义世界观与翻译伦理
在本文中,我们主张关于“全球社会政策研究”的批判性反思,重点关注历史现代主义和欧洲中心主义形式的陷阱,尤其是在对殖民主义的深刻沉默方面,最终以“自上而下或无处可见”的观点告终。我们探讨了历史社会主义世界建筑项目的历史遗产的重要性,以及在有限的、外围的空间中所谓的“过渡”的复杂性。本文围绕四个相互关联的对话和反思:关于我们对全球社会政策作为一个新兴领域的批评的性质;理解全球东方社会政策的发展动态;关于非殖民历史和史学的重要性,作为克服全球社会政策深刻的“现在主义”的一种方式,最后,关于阐明“否则”的全球社会政策和翻译伦理的可能性。

期刊介绍: Global Social Policy is a fully peer-reviewed journal that advances the understanding of the impact of globalisation processes upon social policy and social development on the one hand, and the impact of social policy upon globalisation processes on the other hand. The journal analyses the contributions of a range of national and international actors, both governmental and non-governmental, to global social policy and social development discourse and practice. Global Social Policy publishes scholarly policy-oriented articles and reports that focus on aspects of social policy and social and human development as broadly defined in the context of globalisation be it in contemporary or historical contexts.
