About this book
This book explains the differences between European countries in the supply and forms of public child care and preschool provisions by reference to the historical context in which these forms originated and to the institutional constraints underlying their development.
Reviews
'This book is a welcome addition to the literature on Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC)...The historical perspective and the depth of analysis will extend the shelf-life considerably...Chapters are informative and useful on their own. However, reading the whole collection has great benefits...The book is an inspiration to explore these themes further against the backdrop of the useful perspectives and theoretical framework it introduces.' - Social Policy
