From the mid-eighteenth century to the early nineteenth century, the English Old Poor Law was waning, soon to be replaced by the New Poor Law and its dreaded workhouses. In Writing the Lives of the English Poor, 1750s-1830s Steven King reveals colourful stories of poor people, their advocates, and the officials with whom they engaged during this period in British history, distilled from the largest collection of parochial correspondence ever assembled. Investigating the way that people experienced and shaped the English and Welsh welfare system through the use of almost 26,000 pauper letters and the correspondence of overseers in forty-eight counties, Writing the Lives of the English Poor, 1750s-1830s reconstructs the process by which the poor claimed, extended, or defended their parochial allowances. Challenging preconceptions about literacy, power, social structure, and the agency of ordinary people, these stories suggest that advocates, officials, and the poor shared a common linguistic register and an understanding of how far welfare decisions could be contested and negotiated. King shifts attention away from traditional approaches to construct an unprecedented, comprehensive portrait of poor law administration and popular writing at the turn of the nineteenth century. At a time when the western European welfare model is under sustained threat, Writing the Lives of the English Poor, 1750s-1830s takes us back to its deepest roots to demonstrate that the signature of a strong welfare system is malleability.

"The first of the UN Millennium Goals was to reduce extreme poverty and it was in 2014 halved compared to 1990, and now the goal is to eradicate poverty and hunger by 2030. The reduction in poverty is to a high degree the consequence of the rapid economic development in a few countries, especially China, but in many countries around the globe poverty is still high and influencing societies' overall development. It is against this background that this Handbook provides an up to date analysis and overview of the topic from a large variety of theoretical and methodological angles. Organized into four sections, the Handbook provides knowledge on what poverty is, how it has developed, and what type of policies might be able to succeed in reducing poverty. The first section investigates conceptual issues and relates concepts to people's relative position in society and the understanding of justice. The second section shows how poverty has developed. It will combine existing empirical knowledge with regional/national understanding of the issue of poverty. The third section analyses policies and interventions with the aim of reducing or alleviating poverty within a national as well as global context. It will and intends to include a variety of countries and examples. The last section tells us what can be done about poverty, what instruments are available to end poverty as we know it today. This volume will be an invaluable reference book for students and scholars throughout the social sciences, particularly in sociology, social policy, public policy, development studies, international relations and politics"--

Woede:omdat het mogelijk is dat in een welvarend land kinderen met honger in schoolbanken rekensommen maken en K3-liedjes zingen.Omdat het mogelijk is dat in een welvarend land ouderen van de barre kou en uit schrik voor eenzaam waken hun bed niet durven te verlaten.Omdat het mogelijk is dat in een welvarend land een moeder haar pijn niet met een dokter durft te delen omdat de medicatiekost de schuldenberg alleen maar uitzichtlozer maakt.Vanwege een politiek beleid dat krampachtig huivert en buigt voor de immer op woekerwinst beluste lobby van ongrijpbare multinationale ondernemingen, die er bovendien schaamteloos in slagen om hun niet te stelpen geldhonger voor te stellen als ?algemeen belang?.Onbegrip:voor ?verkozenen des volks? die niet de minste voeling, laat staan mededogen, hebben met een groeiende groep medemensen die zich permanent zorgen moet maken om basisvoorzieningen zoals voedsel, kledij, verwarming of gewoon het hebben van een onderdak.Onbegrip voor holle slogans als ?jobs, jobs, jobs? die als axioma én als mantra gebruikt worden om al wat stinkt, vervuilt, verslaaft, uitbuit en ontmenselijkt goed te praten.Bron: https://www.managementboek.nl/boek/9789460018244?no-mobile-redirect=1
