Description

Gain a deeper understanding of the historical roots of modern child health and welfare with In the Name of the Child: Health and welfare, 1880-1940. Published by Routledge as part of the Routledge Studies in the Social History of Medicine series, this book provides a necessary look at how society has viewed children over the last century. As recent discussions regarding child abuse bring current attitudes into focus, this text explores the professional, social, political, and cultural constructions of childhood during the decades surrounding the First World War. It examines how medical and welfare initiatives were developed and how these provisions were linked to specific political and ideological interests. This scholarly work is an essential resource for those studying the social history of medicine and the evolution of child welfare systems. By looking at the historical background, readers can better understand the complex forces that shaped the medical and social care standards we recognize today.
