This book is about continuity and change in early
nineteenth-century Britain. Against the background of an emerging
industrial state, the popularization of liberal "laissez-faire"
principles, and the rise of a class-based society, it examines the
revival of traditional paternal ideals and considers their
influence upon the development of social policy. Poor laws, social
distress, child labor, and factory reform provide a focus for the
analysis. The implications of the revival for the emergence of the
collective or welfare state is an important theme.
