Governmental Action for Social Welfare is a book written by Jeremiah Whipple Jenks and published in 1910. The book is a detailed exploration of the role of the government in promoting social welfare. Jenks argues that the government has a responsibility to ensure that its citizens are provided with basic necessities such as food, shelter, and healthcare. The book examines the history of government involvement in social welfare, from the Poor Laws of England to the New Deal programs of the United States. Jenks also discusses the various approaches to social welfare, including charity, mutual aid, and government intervention. He argues that while charity and mutual aid are important, they are not sufficient to address the scale of social welfare needs. Government intervention is necessary to ensure that all citizens have access to basic necessities and to promote a more equitable society. The book is a seminal work in the field of social welfare and has influenced government policy around the world. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and theory of social welfare.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
