Covering a range of national cases, this volume explores the relationship of weak social ties to poverty and how ideas about this relationship informed welfare policies in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. By focusing on three representative populations—neglected children, the homeless, and the unemployed—it provides a rich, comparative consideration of the shifting perceptions, representations, and lived experiences of social vulnerability in modern Europe.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 152mmItem Weight: 753gContributor: Beate Althammer (Edited by), Lutz Raphael (Edited by), Tamara Stazic-Wendt (Edited by)Genre: Society & CultureTopic: Social SciencesBook Series: International Studies in Social HistoryAuthor: Lutz RaphaelRelease Year: 2016 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
