The Philosophy of the Poor-Laws is a book written by Frances Power Cobbe that explores the history and philosophy behind the poor laws in England. The poor laws were a system of social welfare that provided relief for the poor and destitute in England during the 19th century. Cobbe examines the origins of the poor laws and the various debates surrounding them, including the controversy over whether or not they encouraged idleness and dependency. She also discusses the impact of the poor laws on society and the role of government in providing social welfare. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the poor laws and their significance in the history of social welfare in England. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of social policy and the role of government in providing for the needs of the poor.THIS 68 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Studies New and Old of Ethical and Social Subjects, by Frances Power Cobbe.
