Abstract: With the need for localization and specialization, embeddedness and autonomy have become the two fundamental strategies for the development of social work in China. Autonomy is proposed to reconcile the tension between structure and action under the embeddedness strategy, and it further give rise to practice research in social work. Drawing upon the postmodern theories of social work practice research and the four main explanatory frameworks in China, the paper finds identifies two primary similarities among the explanatory frameworks: First, they all emphasize the positive significance of practical experience in knowledge production; Second, they all recognize the research status of practitioners in the academic division of labor. However, the research on social work practice has not yet formed a basic research consensus, and the research still stays at the epistemological interpretation level, leading to the core issues and research boundaries of social work practice research,research are ambiguous. Therefore, the future direction of social work practice research should establish the basic research category with the development of consciousness in academic community.

Key words: social work, practice research, professional autonomy, postmodern sociology
