Description

Explore the social and economic conditions that shaped Britain's working poor during the industrial era with this scholarly examination of employment patterns before the modern welfare state. This historical resource traces the lives of labourers, their struggle against poverty, and the emergence of unemployment as a social problem between 1834 and 1911. Published by Routledge as part of their Historical Resources series, this volume provides crucial insights into how working people coped with job scarcity, wages, and economic cycles during a transformative period in British history. Ideal for historians, students, and anyone researching Victorian and Edwardian labour conditions, this book offers primary and secondary source materials that illuminate the experiences of the unemployed before the concept of unemployment insurance existed.
