Routledge Cavendish. Hardcover. New. Hardcover. 248 pages. Dimensions: 9.2in. x 6.2in. x 0.8in.That poor law was law is a fact that has slipped from the consciousness of historians of welfare in England and Wales, and in North America. Welfares Forgotten Past remedies this situation by tracing the history of the legal right of the settled poor to relief when destitute. Poor law was not simply local custom, but consisted of legal rights, duties and obligations that went beyond social altruism. This legal truth is, however, still ignored or rejected by some historians, and thus lost to social welfare policy-makers. This forgetting or minimising of a legal, enforceable right to relief has not only led to a misunderstanding of welfares past; it has also contributed to the stigmatisation of poverty, and the emergence and persistence of the idea that its relief is a gift from the state. Documenting the history and the effects of this forgetting, whilst also providing a legal history of welfare, Lorie Charlesworth argues that it is timely for social policy-makers and reformists in Britain, the United States and elsewhere to reconsider an alternative welfare model, based on the more positive, legal aspects of welfares 400-year legal history.
