The book is divided into two parts. The first part offers a critical reflection on social policy, the impact of the third sector, and the role of social workers. It traces the origins of these components and the transformations that have occurred over time. It highlights the class struggle that has been neglected, reaching the contemporary scene in which we observe the socio-political context, the strategies of the neoliberal offensive of the bourgeois capitalist state, with its ramifications on social policy and the work of social workers. The second part seeks to understand the role of the social worker in a multidisciplinary team in palliative care for a terminal patient. In addition to relieving the symptoms of the pathology faced, they assist family members in coping with the disease process, from diagnosis to the evolution of the clinical picture, and contribute to the reorganisation and possible rearrangements of the family in the post-mourning period. They take a humanised approach, which includes providing emotional, psychological, social, physical and spiritual support. They seek to understand the individual as a whole and do not disregard any detail of their history.
