  The Faculty of Health Sciences and Social Studies at the University of Szeged launched the dual form of social work education in 2018. Several critiques emerged during the introduction of this training model; thus, the aim of this study is to comprehensively evaluate its impacts, advantages, and challenges based on experiences gathered since its inception. The analysis adopts three primary perspectives: that of the educational institution itself, the field institutions acting as dual partners, and the students enrolled in the program. Experiences were explored through structured interviews and focus group discussions. The findings and recommendations outlined in this study may contribute to the further development and enhanced effectiveness of dual education.

  The 2022 amendment of the Social Act codified the principle of self-care in a stricter form than before, stating that "Everyone is responsible for themselves." The original wording of the bill submitted to Parliament declared even more clearly and sharply that "The individual is primarily responsible for their own social security." Professional organizations dealing with social policy and social work, as well as the independent press and opposition parties, unequivocally interpreted the amendment as a withdrawal of the state, while the ruling party that submitted the bill primarily referred to the principle of subsidiarity. Meanwhile, in recent years, social policy and social professions have increasingly been pushed out of the official state terminology, being replaced by the term "care policy." This study attempts to identify and evaluate the normative framework of legislation (problem definition, declared values and ideologies, conceptions regarding state involvement and human nature) by analysing the parliamentary debate on the amendment. Additionally, the analysis pays special attention to uncovering the meanings of "care policy" used by legislators and "traditional" social policy as presented in opposition speeches. Therefore, as the method of analysis, I chose a normative document analysis method based on the ethical values of care and political-philosophical assumptions. The study consists of three parts. First, I summarize the values that define the ethics of care and introduce the document analysis method called Trace, then follows the analysis of the parliamentary debate on the law, and finally, the evaluation of the normative framework.
