Beginning the Search for Best Interest: Child Protection Considers Fostering from the Late Nineteenth Century to the 1960s
Veronica Strong-Boag
Chapter Three explores the first two periods of Canadian child welfare. The first, running from the last half of the 19th century to the 1920s, pitted institutions, often viewed as too subject to female influence, against fostering, which promised patriarchal governance. The second period—from 1920s to the 1960s-- introduced important advances in social security and legal adoption.
