Originally published in 1978 The Origins of British Social Policy
arose dissatisfaction with conventional approaches to the subject
of welfare responsibilities in the state. This volume stresses the
complexity of conscious and unconscious influences upon policy,
which include such political imperatives as the wish to maintain
social order, to maintain and increase economic and military
efficiency and to preserve and strengthen the family as a central
social institution. It suggests that the break between
unsympathetic nineteenth-century Poor Law attitudes towards the
poor and modern 'welfare state' approaches has been less sharp or
complete than is often assumed.
