The study suggests that two domestic conditions are critical to foster opportunities for sustainable peace between formerly conflicting societies. The conditions are defined as social capital and political integration. These are explored in the context of Israeli and Palestinian societies following the signing of the Oslo Peace Accords in 1993 and through 1999, just one year prior to the outbreak of the al-Aqsa Intifada. / Social capital refers to networks of association. Strong networks of relationship are important because they are positively associated with a community and/or society's ability to foster social cohesion, to problem-solve and cope with growing uncertainty such as that exemplifying the period of transition from conflict to peace. / Income inequality is inversely related to social capital. Communities and societies characterized by growing income inequality are typified by diminishing social capital, hence receding capacity to weather the impact of major societal change. / The term political integration refers to the relationship between a government and its citizens. In politically integrated societies citizens share a sense that government is concerned with their welfare and hence their loyalty is expressed through support of the government, its programs and policies. Growing political fragmentation, a lack of abidance, and the breakdown of relationships between civil society and government mark politically disintegrated societies. Political integration is particularly relevant in the aftermath of the signing of a peace agreement when domestic sectarian divides threaten to undermine the national entity that must maintain the delicate balance attained by formerly conflicting societies. / Social capital and political integration are the outcome of greater or lesser human rights: social and economic, civil and political. The persistence of inequality, social and economic, civil and political, wears down the relationships between members of a society and between citizens and their government. / Analysis of standard social and economic indicators in Palestinian and Israeli societies suggests that despite the promised peace dividend social and economic inequality persisted and in some instances worsened between 1993 and 1999. Analysis of civil and political conditions in both societies suggests that political disintegration as opposed to growing integration characterized the six-year period.

Partindo da hipótese de que o Serviço Social tem sua gênese na política conservadora do Estado capitalista, que esse conservadorismo expressa a direção política reformista preconizada por esse Estado enquanto órgão protetor e mantenedor dos interesses da classe capitalista, e que o caráter conservador/reformista da profissão persiste até os dias atuais desafiando a natureza política da profissão de caráter interventivo comprometida com um exercício profissional imerso na crítica da economia política, na compreensão do serviço social como profissão inserida na divisão sociotécnica do trabalho e sustentada pelo princípio ético da defesa intransigente dos interesses da classe trabalhadora, a tese é resultado de pesquisa bibliográfica com o efetivo instrumental de execução do processo investigatório definido pelo estudo sistemático da literatura concernente a questão da relação que se estabelece entre o Serviço Social e a teoria social de Marx veiculada nas obras escritas, faladas e divulgadas com seus aportes teóricos em livro, sites, vídeos e respaldada nos fundamentos históricos e teóricos da profissão explicados pela matriz teórico crítica marxista e constituídos a partir da década de 1960, na esteira da questão social e consolidado nos anos de 1980. Na primeira parte do texto debate-se o encontro do Serviço Social com o pensamento marxista enfatizando os antecedentes socio-históricos e ideopolíticos da relação serviço social e teoria social de Marx, ocorridos nos contextos da questão social produzida pela reprodução social capitalista na Europa, na América Latina e no Brasil. Na segunda debate-se a construção do Serviço Social Crítico com a matriz teórico crítica marxista e a concepção do Serviço Social como profissão institucionalizada orientada pelo movimento de intenção de ruptura que a profissão pactuou em realizar como forma de suprimir o viés tradicional e conservador que fundamentava a profissão. Na terceira parte aborda-se as limitações, contradições e possibilidades na direção política do serviço social crítico a caminho da emancipação da classe trabalhadora
