Abstract

the identity device has been one of the most characteristic elements of modernity. based on the segregation of the social body into different groups according to class, gender, race, ethnicity or age attributions, bodies were hierarchically classified answering to a political economy linked to the development of capitalism. but the most characteristic aspect of this identity device is that it doesn’t operate from an imposed exteriority but from the incorporation and appropriation of this device by the bodies (turned into subjects) designed for social differentiation and recognition. social work, as a professional subject, is not detached from the passing of history and in the last years the spanish state has gained social power due to several identity strategies. It is possible that some of the main values that supposedly identify social Work have been lost in the way.
