Social work authors in the 1950s claimed progressivism as a unique social work "tradition" and set ofvalues, and this historical interpretation has influenced many versions of social work history since that time. Today, other voices in the profession claim various divergent traditions for social work and note that the progressive tradition has waned in the profession. Given these uncertainties, the question of whether social work has or still possesses a progressive tradition is once again revisited, and the current relationship between social work and progressivism is evaluated.
20 世纪 50 年代，社会工作作者声称进步主义是独特的社会工作“传统”和一套价值观，并自那时以来，这种历史解释影响了社会工作历史的许多版本。如今，该行业的其他声音为社会工作提出了各种不同的传统，并指出进步传统在该行业已经式微。鉴于这些不确定性，人们再次探讨社会工作是否曾经或仍然拥有进步传统的问题，并评估社会工作与进步主义之间的当前关系。
