Summary/Abstract: From the period when it emerged as a movement in the United States of america to its full professional affirmation as a method within social work, group work has crossed the path of transformation, constantly following the changes and needs that arose in society in different historical moments and cultural contexts. The paper presents the historical development of group work, with special reference to its specifics in the periods before and after its affiliation with social work, when it begins to be defined as a method of social work. The implications of this direction of group work development in the United States of america on the development of social group work in Serbia are analyzed and the current challenges of further development of social work with groups are pointed out, starting from the perspective of international social group work.
