The article bases on the sociological concept of the pretend activities, formulated by Jan Lutynski in 1977. The subject of the analysis are the manifestations of such bogus activities in the field of social assistance, with the focus point to the social work. Commenting on the specific features of pretend activities in social work, the authoress suggests the presence of the same mechanisms as described in 70. by Jan Lutynski, that induce them. Both their level, as well as their functions to social assistance system, other systems and their causes need to be empirically studied.

The study is concerned with the changes in social and health care in the Kingdom of Hungary in the first half of the 19th century. In this period social care became more systematic and was gradually separated from health care. Apart from town administrations and religious institutions, charitable societies began to significantly contribute to charitable activities. Under the influence of the central government, local authorities began to devote increased attention to such categories of dependent people as the mentally ill, single mothers and illegitimate children, who had previously been scorned or punished by society. Educational institutions for deaf-mute and blind children were a new element on the regional level.

Public health and social welfare subsystems are principally linked together by mutual interests in the basic care of elderly people. Family doctor services are part of the social information system that promotes revealing unfulfilled needs. On the other hand, taking the needful into social care would make the work of family doctors considerably easier. As a consequence, family doctors' signalling should be a general practice everywhere. But social workers experience the contrary. In order to explain the difference between the unity of interest in principle, and the weak collaboration in reality, a theoretical model was elaborated and tested empirically. The authors found that social service providers' preferences are not evident for family doctors, therefore, their willingness to advise depends on their opportunity of obtaining information.

Social care for children and youth in Slovakia achieved significant progress in the interwar period. Behind it is the activity of the Regional Youth Care Centre in Bratislava, which began to take shape in the late 1920s, and was officially established in 1930. It became the roofing institution for District Youth Care, which arose in an evolutionary way in Slovak districts a few for years earlier. The establishment of the Centre and its district branch offices were gradual and they had to fight people´s mistrust, lack of co-workers and insufficient financial resources. The Regional Youth Care Centre overcame initial obstacles and became the main organizer of voluntary care for children and youth in Slovakia and continued its activities even after the destruction of the Czech-Slovak Republic.

The study describes the main principles and stages of modernization in the long 19th century in the Kingdom of Hungary on both the state and local levels using the example of Pressburg/Bratislava. Since the reforms of Joseph II directed towards centralization of care for the poor in the Kingdom of Hungary were not implemented, care for poor and socially dependent people in the towns of Hungary was mainly the responsibility of municipal, church and charitable institutions. Until the fall of the Habsburg Monarchy, the Kingdom of Hungary devoted little attention to care for the poor, and the state social policy had only weak effects. In comparison with other towns in Hungary, Pressburg/Bratislava had a mature network of the communal and church institutions for social care, which were incorporated into an emerging system of communal social policy at the turn of the 19th and 20th century.

The article is directed towards describing and analysing three thematic parts. The first is directed towards the social conditions in the modern European societies of around 1900, which stimulated the development of public care for the young. These conditions are classified as follows: the end of the first demographic transition, an economy of human resources motivated by utilitarian thinking, nationalist populationism and militarism. In the specific conditions of building Czechoslovakia, state propaganda emphasizing building the image of a democratic, tolerant and progressive republic must be added to these facts. The second part is devoted to the problematic fusion of the different traditions of care for the young in the Austrian and Hungarian parts of the Habsburg Monarchy. Analysis of the problems of unification focuses on three thematic parts: 1) differences in the legislation of the two parts of the state, 2) the institutional structure and its development, 3) traditions of civil charity. In spite of the transfer of the Czech organizational structure of District Youth Care and its centralized building based on ethnic principles into Slovakia and Sub-Carpathian Ruthenia, strong elements of continuity with the pre-war system remained. The third part deals with nationalism and ethnic factors in social care for the young. Precisely here, there was strong continuity with the 19th century, when national rivalry between the Czechs and Germans influenced the development of the institutions of social care. Special attention is devoted to the Roma and the application of the vague concept of the “Gypsy way of life” to care for the young.
