Synopsis

The State And The Slums is a book written by Edward Stanley Robertson in 1884. This book is an analysis of the living conditions of the poor in England during the 19th century. Robertson argues that the state has a responsibility to address the problems faced by the urban poor, particularly those living in slums. He examines the various factors that contribute to the existence of slums, such as overcrowding, poor sanitation, and inadequate housing. Robertson also discusses the role of philanthropy in addressing these issues and argues that it is not enough to rely solely on private charity to solve the problem of urban poverty. Instead, he advocates for government intervention to provide better housing, sanitation, and education to the poor. The book is a seminal work in the history of social reform and provides valuable insights into the challenges faced by the working-class during the Victorian era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
