The time span ? from 1850 to the present day - represents moments of colonisations, occupations, wars and conflicts which resulted in un-met needs and broken down institutions. What are the stories behind health care, schools, orphanages and vocational schools, maternity homes and hostels? The collection of chapters examine different involvements in welfare activities not only as contextualised in stable communities and nations, but also as they emerge in vulnerable states and disintegrating societies. Furthermore, this volume brings forth the historical and contemporary voices of those who provide relief and the beneficiaries of such efforts. At the core of this book are themes concerned with humanitarianism in relation to people?s unique experiences, state and non-governmental organisations, gender and modernity. 410 0$aSocial, economic, and political studies of the Middle East and Asia ;$vv. 103. 606 $aPublic welfare$zMiddle East 606 $aSocial service$zMiddle East 615 0$aPublic welfare 615 0$aSocial service 676 $a362.956 701 $aNaguib$b Nefissa$f1960-$01546838 701 $aOkkenhaug$b Inger Marie$01167341 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782334003321 996 $aInterpreting welfare and relief in the Middle East$93805818 997 $aUNINA
