Reviews

The more welcome is this comprehensive volume, telling in some detail the stories of how the churches in the Northern half of Europe dealt with the social issues that arose along with industrialization, urbanization and the creation of the modern nation states during primarily the 19th century. [...] The book fills a gap in the writing of the social history of Europe
Ninna Edgardh, SZRKG, 111 (2017)

Cet ouvrage collectif est donc particulièrement le bienvenu pour les chercheurs en histoire religieuse et en histoire de la protection sociale. Il apporte ainsi un éclairage neuf sur des aires méconnues de l’historiographie européenne. Même si l’angle transnational n’est peut-être pas suffisamment étoffé sous l’angle des échanges d’expériences et des circulations d’idées et de pratiques, ce livre constitue désormais une référence et il invite à une approche semblable pour l’Europe du Sud, tout autant pluriconfessionnelle avec les Églises d’Orient et les communautés juives et musulmanes. Histoire sociale et histoire religieuse n’ont plus à s’ignorer, mais bien à dialoguer entre elles. Ce livre en est le fruit. Bruno Dumons, www.lemouvementsocial.net

In alle bijdragen van 'Charity and Social Welfare' wordt duidelijk dat kerkgenootschappen doorheen de lange negentiende eeuw hun caritaswerking moesten herdenken, maar er wel in slaagden om elk op eigen wijze een rol te blijven spelen in het voorzien van sociale bijstand. Omdat in ieder hoofdstuk het belang van context en de eigenheid van de kerkgenootschappen benadrukt wordt, vertelt het boek meer dan een ‘path-dependent’ geschiedenis.Thomas D’haeninck, Tijdschrift voor Geschiedenis, Volume 131, Number 2, June 2018
