Book Synopsis Full Employment in a Free Society (Works of William H. Beveridge) by : William H. Beveridge
Download or read book Full Employment in a Free Society (Works of William H. Beveridge) written by William H. Beveridge and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-11-27 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beveridge defined full employment as a state where there are slightly more vacant jobs than there are available workers, or not more than 3% of the total workforce. This book discusses how this goal might be achieved, beginning with the thesis that because individual employers are not capable of creating full employment, it must be the responsibility of the state. Beveridge claimed that the upward pressure on wages, due to the increased bargaining strength of labour, would be eased by rising productivity, and kept in check by a system of wage arbitration. The cooperation of workers would be secured by the common interest in the ideal of full employment. Alternative measures for achieving full employment included Keynesian-style fiscal regulation, direct control of manpower, and state control of the means of production. The impetus behind Beveridge's thinking was social justice and the creation of an ideal new society after the war. The book was written in the context of an economy which would have to transfer from wartime direction to peace time. It was then updated in 1960, following a decade where the average unemployment rate in Britain was in fact nearly 1.5%.

Book Synopsis Japan's Modern History, 1857-1937 by : Junji Banno
Download or read book Japan's Modern History, 1857-1937 written by Junji Banno and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-08-13 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the course of the period 1857 to 1937 in Japan, six distinct stages can be identified as the country moved from Shogun rule and its subsequent overthrow, from industrialisation and investment to the Meiji Constitution and then from Taishō democracy to Shōwa fascism. In this book, Junji Banno stresses the mutual relationships between each period, and to this end renames then accordingly: the age of reform; age of revolution; age of construction; age of management; age of reorganisation; and age of crisis. Following this model, the book covers eighty years of history in Japan, focusing on political history and foreign relations, with extensive material also on economic development and foreign influences on political institutions and practices. Based on extensive archival research, Japan’s Modern History considers synoptically the key trends and their significance over the period of 1857 to 1937. In turn, it presents in detail fascinating information on many of the main leaders and other significant figures, with extensive quotations from their writings, letters and diaries. This book is a translation into English of a major work of scholarship by a leading historian of modern Japan, and may be considered the apex of Junji Banno’s work in the field. As such, it will be of great interest to students and scholars of both Japanese history and history more broadly.

Book Synopsis The Works of William H. Beveridge by : Various
Download or read book The Works of William H. Beveridge written by Various and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-02-25 with total page 1944 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Beveridge (1879-1963) was a key figure in the modernization of British economic and social policy who published widely on unemployment and social security. Among his most notable works and reprinted in this set are, Full Employment in a Free Society (1944), and Pillars of Security (1943). Beveridge’s Report on social insurance was published in 1942. It proposed that all people of working age should pay a weekly national insurance contribution. In return, benefits would be paid to people who were sick, unemployed, retired or widowed. Beveridge included as one of three fundamental assumptions the fact that there would be a National Health Service of some sort. Beveridge's arguments were widely accepted. He argued that welfare institutions would increase the competitiveness of British industry in the post-war period, not only by shifting labour costs like healthcare and pensions onto the public account but also by producing healthier, wealthier and more productive workers. Beveridge saw full employment as the pivot of the social welfare programme he expressed in the 1942 report. As well as making available some of Beveridge’s key, and in some case, lesser known works, this set includes as its final volume an indispensable overview of Beveridge and his prolific work.

Book Synopsis Roman Catholic Nuns in England and Wales, 1800-1937 by : Barbara Walsh
Download or read book Roman Catholic Nuns in England and Wales, 1800-1937 written by Barbara Walsh and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is still considerable ignorance about the life and work of female religious communities in England and Wales. The influence of women who developed professional careers in education, health and social care, while at the same time dedicating themselves to religious life, is presented here with a wealth of material relating to their work. Many widely held misconceptions about nuns are dispelled by the author's analysis of the growth and distribution of the religious orders and congregations, the scope and scale of their work and the ensuing financial and recruitment demands. Nuns and sisters took hands-on responsibility for the building, running and staffing of large and complex institutions, hospitals and schools. Their services were not solely confined to the needs of the expanding Roman Catholic community but had an impact on the surrounding society at many levels. This book makes a novel contribution to our understanding of the provision of welfare services by non-state agencies. It explores the socio-economic origins of recruits and the importance of the contribution made by the nuns, many of them Irish women migrants, to educational and social development in England and Wales. Fully illustrated, it also provides maps and valuable tabulated data to open up this field of research for social history scholars and others interested in the achievements of these women.

Book Synopsis A Hundred Years of District Nursing by : Mary Stocks
Download or read book A Hundred Years of District Nursing written by Mary Stocks and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-11-01 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1960, this is a graphic and humorous story of district nursing from its beginning, with the first nurse engaged to work in the slums of nineteenth-century Liverpool, up to the time of publication. Mrs Stocks records how ‘our nurse’ had been and still was a familiar and beloved figure in busy cities and remote rural areas throughout the United Kingdom and was rapidly assuming a similar position in many other parts of the world. William Rathbone of Liverpool early recognized the need for a central organization to recruit and train district nurses and became the father of the Queen Victoria Jubilee Institute for Nurses, or as it became, the Queen’s Institute of District Nursing (now Queen’s Institute of Nursing). The background of its formation gives a fascinating glimpse of different classes of Victorian England. Mrs Stocks describes how Queen Victoria, the Institute’s first Patron, conveyed her wishes to the ‘top people’ who devised and organized the service with the inflexible guidance of Florence Nightingale. At the other end of the scale, she tells of some of the appalling conditions found in the homes by the pioneer nurses. She describes how the Queen’s Institute grew from strength to strength in spite of buffeting by high political winds, until at the time it played an important part in preserving the nation’s health. Today it is a registered charity dedicated to improving the nursing care of people in the home and community.
