“…Unlike the charity actors in the United Kingdom who served as whistle-blowers denouncing the failings of existing systems of care provision and became active policy advocates in this area, the Swiss private sector remained muted in its critique. 89 It was only in the early 1960s that Pro Juventute publicly expressed criticisms and demands for reform of the legal adoption framework in Switzerland. 90 Yet, from quite an early stage, dissertations written by students in social work following internships in public services or private organizations dedicated to the protection of illegitimate children had emphasized the failings of the Civil Code in this area.…”

“…From the 1910s, the Ministry of Education was increasingly involved in financing, developing and regulating them. 89 The DEIE inherited both this tradition of state intervention in the operation of children's colonies and the long-standing involvement of Spanish schoolteachers and educationalists in the matter. For example, Comas himself had co-authored a booklet on Children's Cantines and Colonies in 1935.…”

Since the 1980s, neoliberals have openly contested the idea that the state should protect the socio-economic well-being of its citizens, making 'privatization' their mantra. Yet, as historians and social scientists have shown, welfare has always been a 'mixed economy', wherein private and public actors dynamically interacted, collaborating or competing with each other in the provision of welfare services. This book will be of interest to students, scholars and practitioners of welfare by developing three innovative approaches. Firstly, it illuminates the productive nature of public/private entanglements. Far from amounting to a zero-sum game, the interactions between the two sectors have changed over time what welfare encompasses, its contents and targets, often engendering the creation of new fields of intervention. Secondly, this book departs from a wellestablished tradition of comparison between Western nation-states by using and mixing various scales of analysis (local, national, international and global) and by covering case studies from Spain to Poland and France to Greece in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Thirdly, this book goes beyond state centrism in welfare studies by bringing back a host of public and private actors, from municipalities to international organizations, from older charities to modern NGOs.
