Pensions And Pauperism is a book written by John Frome Wilkinson and originally published in 1892. The book explores the issue of poverty and the role of pensions in alleviating it. Wilkinson argues that the existing system of poor relief, which relied on workhouses and outdoor relief, was inadequate and inhumane. He advocates for a system of pensions that would provide a basic income for all elderly citizens, regardless of their social status or employment history. Wilkinson presents a detailed analysis of the economic and social factors that contribute to poverty, including low wages, unemployment, and illness. He also provides a historical overview of the development of poor relief in England, tracing its evolution from the medieval era to the Victorian period. The book is notable for its advocacy of a progressive social policy that would provide a safety net for the most vulnerable members of society. Wilkinson's ideas were influential in the development of the modern welfare state, and his work continues to be cited by scholars and policymakers today. Overall, Pensions And Pauperism is a seminal work in the field of social policy, offering a compelling argument for the importance of pensions in addressing poverty and inequality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
