According to kenny(2006) “the community development approach to the problem of disadvantage in our society
challenges the common sense framework in which the social problems are often conceptualised”. What does kenny mean by this? Note that how social problems are understood determines the solutions. To illustrate your arguments-whether you agree or not with kenny– refer to the relevant community development, social work, social policy and related literature and give contemporary examples.
The essay is not an opinion piece but an analytical and critical piece of writing that argues for or against the common “sense framework” understanding of social problems. If you do not subscribe to the “common sense” framework, you must present an alternative framework for understanding social problems.
