Emergence, expansion, and transformation of the welfare state in the Cono Sur in exchange with Southern Europe (1850-1900) (B02)

该项目针对拉丁美洲社会政策制定的先驱者，重点关注保健和工人保护立法（“劳动立法”）以及导致这些立法的改革进程。我们将阿根廷、智利和乌拉圭的社会政策动态描述为科诺苏尔地区拥有相似殖民历史、语言和宗教的国家。该项目阐明了三个重要行为者的作用，即保健专家、军方和劳工组织，我们将展示与欧洲和美国的思想交流如何影响了科诺苏尔“南大西洋过境点”的社会政策发展。

The project addresses the Latin American pioneers in social policy making and focuses on health care and workmen’s protection legislation (“Arbeiterschutz”) and on the reform processes which lead to them. We describe the social policy dynamics in Argentina, Chile, and Uruguay as countries of the Cono Sur sharing a similar colonial history, language, and religion. The project elucidates the role of three important actors, namely health care experts, the military, and the ILO, and we will show how the exchange of ideas with Europe and the United States has influenced the social policy development in the Cono Sur’s “South-Atlantic Crossings”.
