Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Public Relief and Private Charity I have compiled this little book because I believe some such restatement of the principles upon which the Modern methods of Charity are based is needed. There is not, perhaps, an original thought or suggestion in it: - an important part of it is direct and verbal quotation; and to every student of the subject it will be apparent that almost the whole of it is taken from the writings of wise men and women who have lived during the past hundred years. Yet I do not apologize for offering it to my fellow workers and the public, for there is nowhere a small book in which the principles underlying our science can be found clearly stated. I speak of "our science," because fortunately the task of dealing with the poor and degraded has become a science, and has its well defined principles, recognized and conformed to, more or less closely, by all who really give time and thought to the subject. From all parts of the world the testimony of the experts is the same, and it is this fact which makes our task so encouraging. We have set ourselves to work to "strengthen such as do stand, to comfort and help the weak-hearted, and to raise up those who fall," and to have found out how this is to be done, is to have taken one step, at least, toward success.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Methods of Charity: An Account of the Systems of Relief, Public, and Private, in the Principal Countries, Having Modern Methods Quite as important are the facts relating to the judgments of experts in each country, and considerable space has been given to these. Popular opinions, sentiments and prejudices, even superstitions are often influential; as, for example, the crude religious feelings which maintain the custom of indiscriminate almsgiving and the survival of street mendicancy. When the opinions are those of persons with scientific education, modern ideals and long practical experience, they are facts of positive value. The recommendations of bodies of experts, made after protracted and repeated discussion, even if they have not yet been adopted in customs, regulations and laws, have a claim to be con sidered; they also are social facts.

Download or read book The Principles of Relief Classic Reprint written by Edward T. Devine and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Principles of Relief The class of social debtors is not recruited from any one occupation, or from any one economic or social group. The learned professions, the mercantile and clerical voca tions, artisans skilled and unskilled, contribute each their fair quota of those who for a longer or shorter period are dependent upon public or private relief. Religion, race, nationality, and color require in the recoids of charitable societies as many subdivisions as in the census. By no means all of those who have small and irregular Incomes become dependent. Meagre or irregular income is, of course, a usual precedent condition of dependence, but there is an uncounted multitude whose earnings are irreg ular or meagre who, nevertheless, do not become social debtors, and who maintain a standard of living which conserves their physical vitality, and enables their chil dren to attain a better position than that which they have themselves occupied. The relief problem is not directly concerned with attempts to elevate the general standard of living, or to influence the general distribution of wealth. It deals rather with social accidents - with individual families, whatever their previous station, who, through sickness, death of breadwinner, or exceptional misfortune of some kind, lose their position and are either temporarily or permanently unable to regain it, or to adjust themselves to any other position of normal self-support. The aggregate number of those who are thus submerged in the onward movement of commerce and industry may be great, but it affords a relief problem only in those communities which are so far advanced in civilization as to recognize social obligations and in which there are at least some resources available for relief. Whether a particular family is dependent is to be judged not by an absolute standard, but with reference to the pre vailing conditions. Where there is general prosperity and a considerable social surplus, it is possible to find families temporarily dependent and fairly entitled, in the interests of the community, to a helping hand from their fellows.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Public Relief of the Poor: Six Lectures A strong conviction of the justice of certain views naturally leads to a belief that a fair hearing will secure their general acceptance, and it is hoped that these pages may do something to overcome the indifference and prejudice of public opinion, which regards the whole question as incapable of amendment. In this sense, and in connection with this subject, a correct theory is the most practical thing in the world for if the possibility of dispauperisation be once established, the details of administration present very little difficulty. The details of a dispauperising administration have been set out in many handbooks, and have been shown to justify themselves by the results. To some minds the force of a general principle has more authority, and to them the following attempt to analyse the economic significance of pauperism and dependence is specially addressed.
