Observations on Mr. Whitbread's Poor Bill, and on the Population of England
Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into influential Poor Laws from the early 19th century and their role in alleviating the plight of England's impoverished masses during an era of rapid industrial growth. The author scrutinizes various proposals for improving the condition of the poor, including those put forth in Mr. Whitbread's 1807 parliamentary speech. Through meticulous analysis, the author examines the effectiveness of key provisions within Whitbread's bill, such as education, savings plans, settlement laws, and the controversial construction of cottages at public expense. While acknowledging the noble intentions behind these initiatives, the author raises concerns about their potential consequences, including increased idleness, financial burdens, and a shift in responsibility away from individuals towards the state. Challenging the notion that widespread poverty was inevitable, the author argues that a redundant population, combined with the Poor Laws, was essential for the nation's prosperity. This book offers a nuanced perspective on the complex challenges of poverty and the role of government intervention, providing valuable insights into the historical and ethical debates surrounding welfare systems.
