Anti-oppressive social work, which emerges as a critique of traditional social work approaches that ignore the existence of social classes and structural factors, individualize social problems and explain them in terms of individual pathology, deficiency and inadequacy, is a critical social work approach emphasizing the possibility of different world, based on principle of social justice, aiming at the empowerment and emancipation of people, defending the struggle against all forms of oppression, exploitation and discrimination. The modern world-system, in a structural crisis today, refers to a historical and social system, which emerged in Western Europe in the 16thcentury and spread over time to the rest of the world, that is characterized by the capitalist mode of production and production relations which have a symbiotic relationship with structural inequalities such as racism, sexism and patriarchy. This article aims to evaluate the antioppressive social work in terms of the modern world-system, addresing the phenomenon of globalisation and underdevelopment, the relationship between structural inequalities and the collective social and political movements, the paradigm of Euro centrist social science, and the neo-liberal transformation of social services.
