Beskrivelse

Discover the surprising connections between American philanthropic foundations and the development of European welfare states. This book reveals how American influences shaped key welfare sectors across Europe.

Exploring the impact of American foundations on European welfare systems from the interwar period to the 1950s.

Often seen as entirely distinct, American and European welfare states share more history than commonly believed. This book delves into how American philanthropic organizations, like the Rockefeller Foundation, played a crucial role in shaping European welfare in areas such as health care, social work, education, and social sciences.

The essays cover the influence of these foundations across several countries, including Denmark, Norway, Hungary, Austria, Germany, France, Spain, and Sweden, during a transformative period from the interwar years through the 1950s. Offering fresh perspectives on the transnational history of European welfare states, the book also examines the complex process frequently referred to as Americanization.
