SOCIAL CARE UNDER STATE SOCIALISM (1945-1989) K...

In the period of State Socialism in Eastern Europe (1945- 1989) Social Welfare was exercised on
two levels: The dominant level was the system of governmental Social Policy  because individual
and private structures of so - cial help were considered as a dispensable bourgeois tradition.
According to this perception  social welfare should include an extensive system of support and
social services  although  in reality  special groups of ''asocials'' and ''parasites'' were
excluded. Although - except for Yugoslavia - social work as a profession was nearly totally
eliminated  modulated forms of social care had to be provided  because people like handicapped
elderly or mentally disabled still were in need. There - fore  Social Care was realised on a
subordinated level - mostly allocated to proximate vocations or organisations like teachers 
nurses and mass organisations. Experts from the respective countries explain what it was
like.Countries under scrutiny:Bulgaria  Czechoslowakia  GDR  Hungary  Poland  Romania  Soviet
