Abstract :
There is general agreement in the literature that self-determination is to be considered as a right of all individuals, at least in a democratic society. It is also a helping technique because helping the client to solve a problem for himself gives him increased confidence in his ability to solve additional problems as they arise. The overlapping of confidentiality and self-determination principles are discussed in the review of previous studies. In this monograph, importance of client self-determination in the field (micro and mezzo) of social work is studied. This study found that, Self-determination is, however, not absolute and should be limited when it may be harmful to the individual or to the rights of others in a social work settings.
