Recent studies have begun to look beyond the state to other ways in which assistance, care, and support were provided in the past, but the focus remains primarily on the poor. This work widens our understanding of welfare by focusing not on the poor but on those who have some wealth. It draws attention to the importance of family as part of a mixed economy of welfare provision that also incorporates the state, the market, and the voluntary sector.||This bo 410 0$aContributions in family studies ;$vno. 18. 606 $aLand tenure$zEurope$xHistory$vCongresses 606 $aInheritance and succession$zEurope$xHistory$vCongresses 606 $aFamilies$zEurope$xHistory$vCongresses 606 $aSex role$zEurope$xHistory$vCongresses 615 0$aLand tenure$xHistory 615 0$aInheritance and succession$xHistory 615 0$aFamilies$xHistory 615 0$aSex role$xHistory 676 $a306.3/2 701 $aGreen$b David R.$f1954-$01483237 701 $aOwens$b Alastair$f1971-$0147049 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780806603321 996 $aFamily welfare$93701247 997 $aUNINA
