Description

This scholarly volume examines late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century responses to unemployment, revealing how authorities sought to address joblessness through labour-focused interventions. The collection explores three primary strategies: emigration programmes that transported unemployed men to British colonies, land-based employment projects designed for urban workers without jobs, and escalating state intervention in labour management. Accompanied by comprehensive editorial commentary, the sources document the era's evolving understanding of unemployment and persistent efforts to compel work participation. Part of Routledge's Historical Resources series, this volume provides historians, economists and social policy researchers with primary documents and analysis spanning 1834-1911, capturing a transformative period when modern unemployment concepts emerged alongside government responsibility for joblessness. The work illuminates how Victorian and Edwardian policymakers grappled with industrial-era poverty and labour market disruption.
