Women and Children First (Routledge Revivals): International Maternal and Infant Welfare, 1870-1945: Routledge Revivals

Editat de Valerie Fildes, Lara Marks, Hilary Marland
en Limba Engleză Paperback – sep 2014
First published in 1992, this book explores the efforts to counteract the high maternal and infant death rates present between the end of the nineteenth century and the Second World War. It looks at the problem in five different continents and shows the varying approaches used by the governments, institutions and individuals in those countries. Contributors display how policy and practice have been shaped by the structure of maternity services, nationalism, the conflict of colonization and cultural factors. In doing so, they illustrate how welfare policy and funding were moulded throughout the world in the times considered.
