After reading about the positions of various political ideologies from around the world (e.g., Libertarianism, Conservatism, Centrism, Liberalism, Social Democracy, and Socialism), please answer the following questions:
1) Which political ideology do you most agree with, and why?
2) Despite having a common code of ethics set forth by the National Association of Social Workers (NASW), social workers in the United States have diverse lived experiences and personal ideologies which they bring into the field. What are the implications for the social work field if we all approach social policy from a different political stance?
