Values are essential components of belief systems. They are the highly-perceptible ingredients that help bind members of social groups and cultures together in their common belief systems. Values are action-oriented, providing fast, simplified judgement calls for certain kinds of situation. They reduce the need for time-consuming consideration of alternative views and actions, and are often applied where factual information is not available. An experience is knowledge or practical wisdom that is gained from what one has observed, encountered or undergone.
Analyse how one’s context and surrounding environment determines the cultural frontiers they face. Analyse how one’s context and surrounding environment determines the cultural frontiers they face.

Values are considered a primary function of social work practice; they are intangible in that they cannot be tasted, smelt, seen, heard or felt, and yet, we can be positively or negatively touched by them. This essay will begin with descriptions of personal and professional values, in particular, those significant to social work.

The conclusion will focus upon how social work values are expressed in the Care Council for Wales’ Code of Practice for Social Care Workers. The term value has multiple meanings dependent upon the context applied.

To add onto these assumptions, there are the dialectic theory of CPM theory, in which relational life is characterized by change and contradiction is the fundamental fact of relational life. All these assumptions suggest that “if we disclosed everything, we wouldn’t have a concept of privacy” (West, 2010).
49) is developed and must be both conveyed and preserved by future society to ensure that the institutions in place remain “real”.

For instance the fragmented element of the narrative can both reflect Offreds 'state of mind' and contribute to the suggestions about Gilead as a nation/ society. The autobiographical narrative itself acts as a rebellion against Offreds dystopia. This is the primary function of the novel which must be considered. It is important to acknowledge that this is not a neutral description of events therefore the focus remains on Atwood's message rather than the issues of any fictional dystopia. Atwood reveals Offreds 'state of mind' through the use of flashbacks.
What we think about employee empowerment depends entirely on what we think employee empowerment means not only in factual terms and in particular cases, but also in sweeping historical, theoretical and essentially political terms.
