While the rise of social protection in the global North has been
widely researched, we know little about the history of social
protection in the global South. This volume investigates the
experiences of four middle-income countries - Brazil, India, China
and South Africa - from 1920 to 2020, analysing if, when, and how
these countries articulated a concern about social issues and
social cohesion. As the first in-depth study of the ideational
foundations of social protection policies and programmes in these
four countries, the contributions demonstrate that the social
question was articulated in an increasingly inclusive way. The
contributions identify the ideas, beliefs, and visions that
underpinned the movement towards inclusion and social peace as well
as counteracting doctrines. Drawing on perspectives from the
sociology of knowledge, grounded theory, historiography, discourse
analysis, and process tracing, the volume will be of interest to
scholars across political science, sociology, political economy,
history, area studies, and global studies, as well as development
experts and policymakers.
