State, Society And The Poor In Nineteenth-Century England

A century ago, working class households avoided or coped with poverty without recourse to the state, the Poor Law offering little more than a "safety net". Rather than look for the origins of modern provision, the author casts light on the practices, ideology and outcomes of 19th-century welfare.
