Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the nuances of pauperism, distinguished from poverty as the habitual receipt of official public relief, by delving into its historical, biological, sociological, psychological, and economic aspects. The author traces the historical evolution of this concept, dissecting its etymology and contrasting it with the legal and religious perceptions of poverty. They posit that pauperism is a distinct social problem, akin to criminality or inebriety, requiring specialized interventions. The book advocates for a scientific approach to understanding and addressing pauperism, emphasizing the importance of segregating and humanely treating individuals with mental defects, preventing alcoholism, and implementing social insurance programs to mitigate the adverse effects of sickness on families. The author argues that these measures, coupled with broader economic and social reforms, can help eliminate the sources of pauperism and promote a society where self-respecting economic independence is the norm.
