No Charity There, now in a revised edition, provides the first
general history of social welfare in Australia. It traces the
development of official and community attitudes to demands and
expectations. As Australia faces its Bicentenary in 1988 and
struggles with the economic and social uncertainties of the 1980s,
a survey of past action taken of behalf of the needy is timely.
Using material not previously readily available, Brian Dickey
analyses how Australian society has sought to solve the problems
raised by a wide variety of vulnerable groups since 1788: the aged,
orphans, single mothers, the insane, alcoholics and the unemployed.
No Charity There is a carefully researched and intelligent study of
a subject of ever-increasing importance.
