Regional & national history

By tracing the varied role of women as producers and distributors of welfare during the period 1780-1930 in both metropolitan and provincial contexts, this collection argues that philanthropy predated, shaped and co-existed with the formation of the "classical" welfare state. It highlights the bias of gender and class in social work. Editor(s): Jordansson, Birgitta; Vammen, Tinne. Num Pages: 288 pages, b/w photos. BIC Classification: 1DN; 3JF; 3JH; 3JJ; HBJD. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 249 x 174 x 23. Weight in Grams: 814.
