title: [The intervention of the social work in the mental health field. Some interrogations and perspectives].
abstract: The intervention of the Social Work in the Mental Health field has singular characteristics. These relate to the social current scenes in which arises the need to recover the notion of historical social process to understand and to explain with major depth the complexity of the context. These matters express from the subjective suffering up to the Sanitary and Social Policies. The recovery of the notion of biopolitic and a social reading of the corporal thing, the narratives of the pain and the mental health, realize of the possibilities and scopes of the intervention in the social thing inside this field. The current demands towards the sector, understood like Problematic Social Complex, show another paths into both for the conceptualization of situations as for the intervention on they. At the same time, the actions inside the field of the health interlace in direct or indirect form with a series of new logics inside the social policies that link themselves with the notion of social inclusion. Also the most recent changes mark a new configuration of neighborhood and community, now understood from the notion of territory. The intervention from the Social Work from this perspective implies a new and necessary place for the word.
