Résumé
Le travail social est une profession qui s’est grandement transformée au cours des dernières décennies, modulée par les diverses transformations sociales, politiques et organisationnelles de la société dans laquelle elle évolue. Or, on retrouve aujourd’hui des recherches de plus en plus diversifiées, où plusieurs visions du travail social coexistent. Ces visions multiples s’accompagnent de valeurs et de principes, mais également d’idéologies tantôt dominantes, tantôt marginales. Les peuples autochtones sont l’un des groupes les plus marginalisés et leurs visions du monde le sont tout autant au sein de la profession. Aujourd’hui, il semble y avoir une volonté de reconnaître la pluralité des savoirs en travail social. Le présent article poursuit cet objectif en présentant le paradigme autochtone en recherche. Il s’agit d’une réflexion théorique qui s’articule autour du contexte historique menant à la création du paradigme, une description de ce qui le compose de même qu’une présentation de quelques exemples de son utilisation par des chercheurs en travail social. Enfin, l’article met en lumière certains enjeux persistants quant à la reconnaissance du paradigme autochtone au sein de la profession.

Abstract
Social work as a profession has undergone significant change in recent decades, modulated by the various social, political, and organizational transformations of the society in which it evolves. Today, there is increasingly diversified research encompassing a number of coexisting visions of social work. These multiple visions come hand in hand with values, principles, as well as ideologies, some of which are dominant, and others that are marginal. Indigenous peoples are among the most marginalized groups in society and so are Indigenous worldviews within the profession. Currently, there seems to be a willingness to recognize the plurality of knowledge in the area of social work. In line with this objective, the purpose of this article is to present the Indigenous research paradigm. This is a theoretical contemplation centred around the historical context that led to the paradigm’s creation, a description of what it consists of, as well as a presentation of a few examples of its use by social work researchers. Finally, the paper brings up certain persistent issues related to the recognition of the Indigenous paradigm within the profession.
