Fair orig. brown cloth. Spine and upper joint heavily abraded. v, 7-111, [1] p.; 17 cm. `First, the Churches have an important part to play in the sphere of politics. To say, as is sometimes said, that the Churches must keepclear of politics is the same thing as to say that the Churches must keep clear of the liveliest interests and the firecest enthusiasms of the nation.At any rate, if the Churches stand aloof from politics, Labour will standaloof from the Churches. Fortunately the Churches neeed little conversion in this respect; the clergy and ministers of religion, more ardently than the members of any other profession, have always flung themselves into the arena of political controversy. It is in thethod, and not in the fact, of their entry that reformation is required.' (p. 101 f.) -- `It is the duty of the Churches to denounce sin. The neglect of poverty is a sin; it is, therefore, the duty of the Churches to denounce this neglect. A simple syllogism,but on its due recognition depends the question whether Labour and the Churches can work together.' (p. 107 f.). Binding is Hardcover.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the history of apprenticeship in England, from the medieval era to the present day. It highlights that for an apprenticeship system to be effective, it must offer supervision, training, and pathways to employment. These were lacking in the Victorian era leading to child labour harm and exploitation. During the last century, the state gradually took a more active role in regulating child labour to protect young workers. This included laws against employing children under a certain age, and regulations to prevent injury and illness at work. The book also considers the role of education, and explores the past and present challenges of ensuring all children have equal access to quality education and training. This book draws on historical events to illustrate the evolution of child labour regulation and education, arguing these are essential for protecting and empowering young people.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. In this volume, the author examines the profound effects of the burgeoning urban landscape on children in the early 20th century. As towns and cities rapidly expanded, the author highlights a fundamental shift in the environment surrounding children, from a predominantly natural world to one increasingly dominated by human-made structures. The author suggests that while the natural world fosters qualities such as stability and calm, the human-made urban environment breeds a sense of excitement, constant noise, and a lack of beauty. Through a unique blend of observation and analysis, the author demonstrates how factors such as the slower pace, greater silence, and natural beauty of rural environments foster different strengths and characteristics in children compared to those growing up in urban areas. In closing, the author underscores the critical need to understand these contrasting experiences and their impact on children's development, emphasizing that the insights gained from this work remain highly relevant to contemporary society.
