摘要：

In this paper we apply the lens of moral panic to analyse child protection social work in the UK. We suggest that many of the anxieties that beset social work are best understood as moral panics and discuss processes in which 'claims-makers' have introduced and amplified concerns into panics. We discuss two examples of anxieties over child endangerment: the first is concerned with the foundation of the NSPCC and its campaign for the Children's Charter of 1889. The second is the contemporary 21st century anxiety over children and young people's use of the Internet, exemplified in the activities of the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre (CEOP) and their 'Children and Young Persons' Global Online Charter'.
