Abstract :
Welfare Policies in Switzerland and Italy, edited by Michela Minesso, was published in 2021 by Peter Lang. The book comprises six studies, with a word from the editor at the beginning, and provides a broad overview of the whole system of Italian and Swiss welfare policies in the 19th and 20th centuries. The authors include Jean-Pierre Tabin, Brigitte Studer, Paolo Passaniti, Gianni Silei and Massimiliano Paniga, all eminent researchers in their fields. The studies in this volume provide insight into the development of family law, women’s rights and social rights in this period. It makes a very interesting reading for those interested in the subject.
