The Legislation Which Is Required to Meet the Case of the Habitual Drunkard (Classic Reprint) - Couverture souple
Synopsis
A bold call for reform: current laws fail to curb habitual drunkenness, and practical reforms are urged.
In this edition, the author argues that existing powers are useless for reform and lays out a clear case for new, simpler, and stricter legislation. Drawing on historical inquiries and parliamentary debate, it frames alcohol abuse as both a social disease and a matter of public policy, and it outlines why reformatories and proper oversight are needed to break the downward spiral caused by drink.
- Understand the challenges of past legislation and why fines and short imprisonments fall short
- See proposed pathways for reform, including new powers to detain and treat, not punish
- Learn how reformatories could work alongside schools and other social measures
- Explore the debate around personal liberty, public protection, and the role of government
Ideal for readers interested in legal history, social reform, and how public policy can confront entrenched social issues through structured, reform-minded proposals.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, first published in 1876, examines the social and legal issues surrounding habitual drunkenness and explores the need for specialised legislation to address the issue. The author, a medical practitioner, carefully considers the arguments for and against increased government intervention in the lives of those suffering from this disease. He suggests that existing legislation is inadequate and calls for new laws to be enacted to provide for the detention and treatment of habitual drunkards. The book examines the complex interplay between personal choice and external factors that contribute to alcoholism and discusses the role of society in supporting those struggling with this disease. The author's insights on the nature of addiction and the best way to help those affected remain relevant and thought-provoking today. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781333209490_0
