An Enquiry Into the Principles of Population (Classic Reprint): Exhibiting a System of Regulations for the Poor: Exhibiting a System of Regulations for the Poor (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book examines the history and causes of population growth, poverty, and poor laws, arguing that they are the most vital questions in public economy, demanding immediate consideration by the legislature. The author disputes common doctrines on population, such as the belief that poverty is due to inadequate sustenance rather than insufficient means to purchase it, and delves into the relationship between poverty and population increase. Written during a time when these issues were reaching a fever pitch in England and Ireland, this book sought to alleviate distress amongst the laboring classes and prevent future economic crises. The author believed the solution was to stimulate economic growth and prevent population increase. The principles outlined in this book laid the foundation for the study of political economy and the development of social reform policies.
