For decades, a new type of terrorism has been quietly gathering ranks in the world. America's ability to remain oblivious to these new movements ended on September 11, 2001. The Islamist fanatics in the global Salafi jihad (the violent, revivalist social movement of which al Qaeda is a part) target the West, but their operations mercilessly slaughter thousands of people of all races and religions throughout the world.

Istilah kesejahteraan sosial memiliki arti ganda. Pembaca akan berhadapan dengan kerumitan maknanya, tetapi bukan berarti tanpa solusi. Pengertian kesejahteraan sosial dapat dikelompokkan menjadi tiga, yaitu: kesejahteraan sosial sebagai kondisi, kesejahteraan sosial sebagai aktivitas, dan kesejahteraan sosial sebagai ilmu. Ilmu kesejahteraan sosial memiliki orientasi ganda, yang terdiri dari: orientasi akademis, orientasi klinis, dan orientasi strategis. Kesejahteraan sosial bukan hanya merupakan fenomena lokal, tetapi juga nasional dan internasional. Kegandaan arti, orientasi, dan konteks tersebut berhak mendapat perhatian dari para pemangku kepentingan kesejahteraan sosial agar memperoleh pemahaman yang tepat dan bulat.

Selamat membaca, dan temukan kebenarannya. Semoga, kita tidak menjadi “penyandang” masalah kesejahteraan sosial!
