Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive exploration of the development of England's poor laws. It begins by discussing the role of the Church in providing charitable relief and the early legislation that was enacted to suppress vagrancy. The author then focuses on the Poor Law of 1601, which est…ablished the principle of a state-funded relief system administered by local parishes. The book also examines the impact of the Act of Settlement of 1662, which introduced the concept of settlement and made it difficult for the poor to move freely in search of work. The author argues that this Act had a profound impact on the development of the English poor law system, leading to widespread poverty and social unrest. The author concludes by discussing the reforms to the poor law system that were implemented in the 19th century, which sought to address the problems caused by the Act of Settlement. The book provides a valuable overview of the history of the English poor law system, its successes, and failures, and offers insights into the challenges of providing effective and compassionate relief to the poor.
