Resumen
THE ARTICLE ANALYZES THE CONTEXTS AND SPECIFICITIES OF POST-DISASTER SOCIAL WORK INTERVENTION BASED ON THE TESTIMONIES OF SOCIAL WORKERS WHO PARTICIPATED IN THE RECOVERY AND NORMALIZATION PROCESSES AFTER THE EARTHQUAKES OF 1985, 2010, AND 2015 IN CHILE. THE NEOLIBERAL CONTEXT HAS INFLUENCE IN THE SOCIAL INTERVENTION. AS NEOLIBERALISM DEEPENS, THERE IS MORE TECHNOLOGY AND BETTER ACCESS TO MATERIAL RESOURCES, BUT AT THE SAME TIME, PROFESSIONAL AUTONOMY AND COMMUNITY KNOWLEDGE DECREASE. RESEARCH SUGGESTS THERE IS A NEED FOR FURTHER CRITICAL DISCUSSION ABOUT HOW SOCIAL WORK HAS BEEN COLONIZED BY NEOLIBERALISM, EVEN IN SEEMINGLY NEUTRAL ISSUES SUCH AS POST-DISASTER INTERVENTION.
