사회복지 학문분야에서 개발도상국에 관한 연구 동향

초록

The purpose of this study is to investigate the academic role of social welfare and to identify future directions and tasks for development by structurally grasping the research trends about developing countries in the field of social welfare. To do this, we reviewed 66 studies published from 2007 to 2016, and conducted descriptive analysis and keyword network analysis based on the research characteristics and themes. As a result, researches on developing countries in the social welfare discipline have been steadily increasing and research topics are also becoming more diverse. However, vertical and horizontal expansion of research subjects is required, and in particular, the need for in-depth discussion on poverty and gender issues is emphasized. More specifically, there is a lack of field-based research, and it is necessary to cover various regions in a comprehensive manner. In addition, close cooperation with governments and social welfare organizations in developing country is also required to enable systematic empirical research.
