Leen Van Molle is full professor of social history and member of the research group MoSa (Modernity and Society, 1800-2000) at KU Leuven. Her research focuses on the history of Belgian and European social identities, social movements and social policy, and in particular the history of the rural world.

In alle bijdragen van 'Charity and Social Welfare' wordt duidelijk dat kerkgenootschappen doorheen de lange negentiende eeuw hun caritaswerking moesten herdenken, maar er wel in slaagden om elk op eigen wijze een rol te blijven spelen in het voorzien van sociale bijstand. Omdat in ieder hoofdstuk het belang van context en de eigenheid van de kerkgenootschappen benadrukt wordt, vertelt het boek meer dan een ‘path-dependent’ geschiedenis.Thomas D’haeninck, Tijdschrift voor Geschiedenis, Volume 131, Number 2, June 2018
