The author postulates that climate change and the narratives of the Anthropocene are a reformulation of the paradoxes of social work between normativity and emancipation. He suggests taking a pragmatist stance that takes seriously emancipatory professional practices in their relationship to the environment, between the social and the living, the human and the non-human, to promote a practice of sobriety. It thus leads to the social, which contains an ecological substance that can be included in the challenges of the ecological transition.
