The Logic of Charity: Amsterdam, 1800-1850
Marco H. D. van Leeuwen
This study analyses poor relief in preindustrial Europe from 1800 to 1850, as a survival strategy of the poor and as a control strategy of the elites. A simple model of poor relief is presented, based on insights derived from history, sociology and welfare economics.
