The article presents the concept of welfare pluralism. It is both the contemporary analytical tool used in the explanations of the welfare state change, as well as a widely implemented policy to provide better social services. The first part of the text is a broad overview on the diverse theories of welfare state change and the growth of welfare pluralism (Johnson, Ascoli, Ranci, Drakeford, Rothstein, Steinom, et. al.). In the second part of the article the author presents an own analytical model of welfare pluralism - 'welfare daisy'. The third part of the text shows the role of three sectors (the state, the commercial sector and the nongovernmental sector) in social services provision in the diverse countries of Europe. The analysis shows that in many countries it is the third sector that prevails in social services supplement, however often financed by the state. On the one hand, it means the growing responsibility of civic organizations for social services delivery, on the other - the stronger dependence of the third sector to public finances.

The SRV concept, being worked out since the 1970s by W. Wolfensberger et al., has been not still widely exploited in the domestic social science literature. The author brings some arguments about its inspiring values for social research work, even so, for an area of interventions aimed to support valorisation of service users´ roles, mainly in residential long-term care services. She presents some main findings of her own research which are interpreted in the SRV´s optics. Finally, she identifies some distinctive levels on which the role-valorisation interventions should be carried-out.

The paper examines some of the ethical questions inherent in social work. Its focus is on three main questions: 1. why should one abide moral norms i.e. what urges one to act within the limits of a certain morality? 2. How are the sources and forms of the good to be distributed? 3. Which acts are considered to be valuable, good and desirable? It is the author's conviction that contrary to other professions, in social work, which is engaged with the excluded, discriminated, and marginalized, defining its objectives as well as their accomplishment are closely related to moral and political values.

The COVID-19 pandemic led to a global rise of intimate partner violence against women as it combined multiple risk factors. Crisis situations and their potential economic impact cause psychological stress and increase negative coping strategies, which belong to the significant risk factors for intimate partner violence. In addition, restriction of social contacts and social isolation that constituted an important part of anti-pandemic responses are well documented strategies of batterers that use them as mechanisms of coercive control and to prevent help-seeking. Several studies of the impact of COVID-19 on intimate partner violence focused on its increase and the limited access to services during the pandemic. Less attention has been paid to social isolation as a legitimation of violent strategies and its impact on IPV survivors’ resilience. The present text addresses social isolation in this context. It derives from qualitative research on the impact of COVID-19 on IPV survivors carried out through interviews with 9 employees of specialised social services for women experiencing violence. As such, it reflects service providers’ experience and their expert evaluation. As expected, social isolation as a new social norm during the pandemic has increased this specific form of violence and led to a limited availability of help. However, it has also generated less predictable effects such as slowing down of the healing process and re-traumatising of already compensated survivors, as well as challenging service providers as social isolation contradicts the philosophical principles of services for intimate partner violence survivors.

The economically and politically globalizing world makes it necessary, to a greater and greater extent, to search for solutions which would allow to face new dimensions of economic and social problems. The gradual withdrawal of the state from the role of the main provider of benefits, as well as the wider and wider differentiation as regards the manner of performing functions by the state, which appear to be clearly modeled on the practice of other sectors nowadays, create a new context for the functioning of subjects of a civic society. Numerous debates connected with the post-socialist transformation usually draw attention solely to fundamental changes within the economic system, while the new polity that is emerging in consequence of the transformation implies not only a new form of the state, but also a new model of the non-governmental sector, the latter – on the other hand – is clearly exerting an influence on the transformation of the functioning of the public administration in Poland. Indeed, it is evident that the role of the public administration must undergo thorough modifications, yet reforms carried out cannot consist in that the activity of the civic (non-governmental) sector related to rendering public services will be treated as a substitute of social aid. It can and should complement the latter.
