Description

Explore a new perspective on English history with The Politics of Hunger: Protest, Poverty and Policy in England, c. 1750-c. 1840. Published by Manchester University Press as part of the Manchester Capitalism series, this work examines how hunger remained a significant political force during the age of Malthus and the workhouse. While scholars often focus on famine or early modern history, this book provides a systematic study of how hunger was experienced and feared by the poor. It investigates the persistence of biological want and the political realities of poverty in late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century England. This text offers a deep look into the social and cultural history of the era, addressing a subject that has often been marginalized in academic studies.
