Pauper policies examines how policies under the old and New Poor
Laws were conceived, adopted, implemented, developed or abandoned.
This fresh perspective reveals significant aspects of poor law
history which have been overlooked by scholars. Important new
research is presented on the adoption and implementation of
'enabling acts' at the end of the old poor laws; the exchange of
knowledge about how best to provide poor relief in the final
decades of the old poor law and formative decades of the New; and
the impact of national scandals on policy-making in the new
Victorian system. Pointing towards a new direction in the study of
poor law administration, it examines how people, both those in
positions of power and the poor, could shape pauper policies. It is
essential reading for anyone with an interest in welfare and
poverty in eighteenth and nineteenth-century England. This book is
relevant to United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 1, No
poverty. -- .
