In the Name of the Child explores a variety of professional, social, political construction of the child, and descrives how medical and welfare initiatives of the time were closely allied to politcal and ideological interests.

Recent revelations of child abuse have highlighted the need for understanding the historical background to current attitudes towards child health and welfare. In the Name of the Child explores a variety of professional, social, political and cultural constructions of the child in the decades around the First World War. It describes how medical and welfare initiatives in the name of the child were shaped and how changes in medical and welfare provisions were closely allied to political and ideological interests.
