In a world dominated by poverty, a central characteristic has been
the plight of orphans and abandoned children. Over the centuries,
State, Church and individuals have all attempted to tackle the
issue, but can we trace any change over the course of time when it
comes to the welfare system intended for these disadvantaged
children and acts of philanthropy? What kind of social policies did
States follow and what were the main differences between countries
and regions? Drawing on historical evidence across several
centuries and a range of European countries, the contributors to
this volume provide a transnational overview.
