- Authors

- Abstract
This article explores the achievements and characteristics of five pioneering mutual benefit societies (sociedades de socorros mutuos) in five provincial capitals in northern Spain from the middle of the nineteenth century to the middle of the twentieth. By so doing, it engages with the historical literature on social welfare. It develops a typology based upon size, relationships with affiliates, organization, benefits, internal associational dynamics and the impact on local public live.
