Описание: Focusing primarily on British political thought from the mid-1600s to the mid-1800s, Thomas Horne examines the philosophical links between property rights and welfare rights. He demonstrates that the defense of property did not preclude a rationale for aiding the poor. In doing so, he provides valuable insights into the origins of both classical liberalism and the contemporary welfare state.
Medical Negligence in Victorian Britain is the first detailed exploration of the hundreds of charges of neglect against doctors who were contracted to the 'new' poor law after the Poor Law Amendment Act of 1834. The author moves beyond the hyperbole of Victorian public 'scandal' to use medical negligence as a prism through which to view hidden aspects of poor law doctors and their patients. This provides a uniquely grounded perspective, from the day-to-day experience of medical practice - for both doctor and patient - to the context of the medico-political, socio-legal and cultural processes that underpinned the social construction of negligence at this time.
The result is a clearly enunciated description of what negligence meant to the Victorians and how they sought to define and deal with negligent care, moving the topic from the sidelines of English welfare history to the centre-stage role it played in Victorian society. Thematically and chronologically arranged in two parts, the book uses extensive new archival material with a particular focus on the official inquiries into neglect conducted by poor law inspectors. It offers a fresh perspective on the poor laws that has repercussions for wider histories of welfare, medicine and legal medicine.

Описание: At the core of this book are the stories and life-cycles of the poor themselves. Drawing on sources (pauper letters, petitions, vestry minutes, newspaper reporting and accounts) collected over the last twenty years, Steven King poses three key questions: How did the dependent poor experience and talk about such variables as housing, family, medical care, or the makeshift economy? How were such experiences related to situational matters such as ethnicity, belonging, kinship, family size and structure, and the relative wealth or poverty of the communities in which they found themselves? And to what extent did the poor themselves have agency in the poor law systems with which they engaged? While practice and experience varied markedly within and between areas and between rural and urban contexts, the author suggests that paupers under the mature Old Poor Law had gained considerable agency in their dealings with officials. They learnt to navigate rules and systems of entitlement, became expert at rhetoricising their stories and problems, and adopted the same linguistic platform as the overseers with whom they engaged. Such strategies, it is argued, means that it is necessary to look beyond the scandals, penny-pinching and negative sentiments of particularly well-documented parishes and adopt a much more complex view of the intent, sentiment and outcomes of the Old Poor Law.

First published in 1981. Professor Crowther traces the history of the workhouse system from the Poor Law Amendment Act of 1834 to the Local Government Act of 1929.
At their outset the large residential institutions were seen by the Poor Law Commissioners as a cure for nearly all social ills. In fact these formidable, impersonal, prison-like buildings - housing all paupers under one roof - became institutionalised: places where routine came to be an end in itself. In the early twentieth century some of the workhouses became hospitals or homes for the old or handicapped but many continued to form a residual service for those who needed long-term care.
Crowther pays attention not only to the administrators but also to the inmates and their daily life. She illustrates that the workhouse system was not simply a nineteenth-century phenomenon but a forerunner of many of today's social institutions.
