Professionele Richtlijnen voor het Sociaal Werk: Een onderzoek naar de huidige staat, praktijk en doorontwikkeling van de richtlijnen voor het sociaal werk in Nederland

In the Netherlands, there has been considerable debate about the desirability and necessity of professional guidelines for social work.

At the same time, there is hesitation because guidelines are also associated with control and standardization, which can conflict with the emphasis on customization and context-sensitiveness that characterizes social work.
