| Summary | "The Elements of Child-Protection" by Sigmund Engel is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The work investigates the issues surrounding child protection from the perspectives of both modern socialism and Darwinism, recognizing the significance of these frameworks in shaping child welfare practices. Engel aims to address the various challenges related to child mortality and the quality of the population, ultimately promoting a societal understanding that prioritizes the nurturing and development of children. The opening of the work presents the importance of child protection that emerged during the latter half of the 19th century, which Engel describes as the "Century of the Child." It emphasizes the intertwined nature of child protection with the evolving social and economic conditions of the time, discussing the need for effective measures to decrease child mortality and improve the health of future generations. Engel sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration of population problems, mortality rates, and education, consistently linking these themes back to the broader implications for society and the state. Overall, the beginning serves as a call to action for addressing the challenges of child welfare through a thoughtful and informed societal approach. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
