Although social construction remains somewhat marginal within social work, it has had some influence on important social work issues and practices. In this section we provide some examples of how a social constructionist orientation has been used to reconceptualize social work issues and how it has influenced practice. Although practice is most often used synonymously with micro-level practices (e.g., clinical work), it is important to note that social work practice also occurs at mezzo (e.g., organizations) and macro levels (e.g., policy). These are rarely independent. Thus, when we discuss social constructionist contributions to social work positions on evidence-based practice and cultural competence, two current and influential approaches to practice, these changes have implications for practices at all levels.
