Abstract

This paper brings a series of contributions to the understanding of probation practice as a permanent process of social construction, as well as identification of axiological, ideological, normative and institutional frameworks of the process, and how these frameworks are reflected in the speech on practice. The research approach is exploratory, based on the Grounded Theory model, and framed in the social-constructionist paradigm. The research conducted in the N.-E. Area of Romania and the Republic of Moldova confirm our model, according to which the social construction of reality has an axiological and ethical ground, through the existence of constitutive values, and a semiotic-discursive one, guided by operational values. Within this research, there were developed a series of conclusions that could be hypotheses for future research: The Romanian and Moldavian probation model is a multi and transdisciplinary one, with strong assistential and social-therapeutic accents.
