Descripción
Sumario:The present review focuses on the methodological proposition in Rodolfo Alberto Nunez's book, "Community Networks: Theoretical-methodological influence and intervention accounts". The author discusses social work in communities and their problem-solving processes related to crime prevention. Nunez begins from identifying the action of community members facing social problems, and the moment this action becomes a crime. In this process, the offenders are assisted by social workers and other agents who form social networks linked by common ground in debates about crime prevention. Nunez's main criticism is towards public policies aiming to solve certain problems from an outsider's viewpoint, far from the offender's view of the problem. Thus, the author states that facing the problems and diverse situations experienced by offenders in social groups and their communities in the everyday life requires intense dialogue among their members.Keywords: Crime prevention.
