CHANGING WELFARE
COPENHAGEN APRIL 9-10 2019
Like our conceptions and understandings of what to associate with welfare change over time so do the welfare state institutions translating social policies into architecture, landscapes and urban spaces and those spaces themselves. The workshop will trace the different developments of specific welfare conceptions, welfare sustaining institutions and welfare spaces in the Nordic welfare states and examine whether they constitute unique or similar paths of development within the Nordic countries.
Organisers: Ellen Braae, Runa Johannesen, Tom Nielsen
