Erziehung zu ,Zucht und Ordnung'. Mädchenfürsorge in Deutschland (1871–1970)

The text is an interview by Anelia Kassabova with Sabine Hering, i.R. professor of social pedagogy, gender and welfare history at the University of Siegen. The starting point is the questions about children in homes, with an accent on gender differences and care for girls in Germany from the Kaiserreich to the 1970s. The discussion is based on Hering's analyses of the history of welfare, social pedagogy, women's movements and social democracy. These provide a gender-historical overview of the developments of child and youth welfare in Germany over the broad period.
