Poverty, Philanthropy and the State: Charities and the Working Classes in London, 1918–79
Katherine Bradley
This book charts the growth of the university settlement movement, a fundamental influence in the shaping of the welfare state, from 1918 to Margaret Thatcher's election in 1979. It looks at the complex relationships between charities, the welfare state and individuals and the ways in which change was negotiated over the twentieth century. -- .
