Abstract: Aiming to analyze some of the mediations present in the intrinsic relationship between Social Service, Social Issues and Social Policies in the socio-historical formation of Brazil, we present in this article some of our theoretical reflections on this issue. To this end, methodologically, we used bibliographical research on critical production on the topic, present in the theoretical-methodological foundations of the profession, and as a research method, we anchored ourselves in historical-dialectic materialism. Therefore, we reiterate the understanding, hegemonic in professional critical culture, that the professional praxis of Social Work is based on the constitution of the “social issue”, which is crossed by professional struggles in confronting its expressions, working with and in policies social issues as means and/or instruments to combat them. However, Brazilian social policies present, in a dialectical movement, trends that reflect the paths of the country's socio-historical formation, as well as expressions of the determinations of each historical situation. And, in the contemporary scenario, the dynamics of financialization manifest themselves in the State, shaping selectivity, targeting and cutting social spending, as premises that permeate social policies and the professional work of social workers.
