“…Poverty, assistance, charity, and philanthropy have always been interconnected, and this connection becomes even stronger when linked to childhood [22,23]. Assistance was one of the forms of societal intervention on poverty and the poor.…”

“…Assistance could be increased through charitable and philanthropic strategies. It can be considered that the greatest difference between charity and philanthropy is not in the action itself, but in the means of carrying it out, because charity, being a pious work, presupposes the abdication of all vanity on the part of its author, advocating anonymity as the maximum value, while philanthropy, being a gesture of utility, has a central element in advertising [22,23].…”

The aim of this article is to understand the symbolic representations of the assistance strategies aimed at disadvantaged children, expressed in two newspapers published on the island of Faial, in the Azores, in the second half of the 19th and early 20th centuries (covering the time horizon between the end of the monarchic period and the implementation of the First Republic). The technique of documentary analysis and a subsequent qualitative thematic content analysis of childcare news collected in two local newspapers were used. The discursive records produced by the press on the assistance strategies value, on the one hand, an axiological dimension and forms of charitable intervention and, on the other hand, aggregate and reconcile the discourses and techniques inherent to charitable and philanthropic models. This mutual assimilation underlies the achievement of the same objective: The moralization and integration of disadvantaged invalid childhood and, above all, the protection of the existing social order. We conclude that, perhaps contrary to what would be expected, the charitable logic articulated in a concomitant way with the philanthropic logic survived, even with the stabilization of the republican period (result of a revolution that deposed the regime of the constitutional monarchy and implemented the republican regime in 1910 in Portugal, whose political elites mobilized an official discourse that advocated the separation between the State and Religion, assigning the State the function of social assistance for children and youth). This demonstrates a certain dissociation, as well as a relative autonomy of conceptions about child and youth care between republican political ideology and current social practices, at least in this specific context.

“…Moving away from piety, the idea of social utility underlies it (Duprat, 1996). Generosity was presented as the virtue of the well-born man, who was inclined to donate, to donate widely, hence the strong presence of the great fortunes among the main philanthropists (Sanglard, 2003). Philanthropy is the contested practice of an elite that claims for itself the competence to solve social problems based on the expertise acquired in other fields (Lambelet, 2017).…”

The prospect of living conditions for young people in foster care houses until legal adulthood is a situation resonating among services related to the specialized protection of social assistance in Brazil. One of the outcomes facing this uncertainty, provided for those with disabilities, is their referral to a public residential support service. The decision for this conduct is woven in a complex net of work and relations, whereby aspects of social vulnerability, institutionalization, and the right to social protection, in addition to diagnostic compositions and notions aligned by capacitism, intersect in labyrinthine ways. This complexity outlines the decision for the referrals as a matter to be questioned and mapped. Thus, the research uses the instrument ecomap to draw the flows between institutions of a tangible net. Those were produced during workshops, considering hypotheses, knowledge, and information of a technical team, referred to an institution of supported housing in São Paulo City. By locating the cascades through the ecomaps, it proceeded to map institutional paths that cross users and workers in the field of social protection, highlighting those that intertwine forms of living and work. The research dialogues with Brazilian public policies established by the rights of people with disabilities, especially ones concerning living rights, therefore combined with the ethics of care. The mapping conducted sustains that the referral is associated with two dangers. The first one lies in the obligation to move from one to another territory, untying the net and drawing non-stop routes for its users. The second one resides in the referral as an act adjacent to an expert evaluation, therefore in the prospect of dispute.
