Excerpt from Methods of Social Reform: Essays Critical and Constructive

The State of the Poor has now established itself as a permanent controversy, and, before long, it may be thrust into the fore-front of practical politics. This consideration will, it is hoped, warrant the author in his desire to reissue, at the present time, and in book form, a selection from the contributions which he has made, during the last few years, to this vexed and important inquiry. Some of the papers contained in this volume were originally delivered as addresses at Poor Law Conferences, or at gatherings of a kindred nature. Others have been reprinted from the reviews in which they originally appeared. The paper on Poor Law Reform and that on Free versus Collective Bargaining are now printed for the first time.
