Synopsis

The Scottish Poor Laws: Their History, Policy And Operation is a book written by Robert Peel Lamond and originally published in 1892. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the Scottish Poor Laws, which were a series of laws enacted in Scotland between the 16th and 19th centuries to provide relief for the poor and needy. The book delves into the history of the Scottish Poor Laws, tracing their evolution from the early days of the Scottish Reformation to their eventual repeal in the 20th century. It explores the social, economic, and political factors that shaped the development of these laws, and the various debates and controversies that surrounded them. In addition to providing a historical overview, The Scottish Poor Laws: Their History, Policy And Operation also examines the policy and operation of the laws. It discusses the different forms of relief that were provided to the poor, such as outdoor relief, indoor relief, and workhouses, and the impact that these forms of relief had on the lives of the poor. Overall, The Scottish Poor Laws: Their History, Policy And Operation is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of social welfare in Scotland.
