Writings on the Poor Laws - The Collected Works of Jeremy Bentham
Jeremy Bentham
In the essays presented in this volume, Bentham lays down the theoretical principles from which he develops his proposals for reform of the English poor laws in response to the perceived crisis in poor relief in the mid-1790s. These ideas were to be a significant influence on the Poor Law Amendment Act of 1834.
