  This powerful and moving book brings together a wealth of modern scholarship to survey a fully systematic fashion, the interaction between the strategies of the poor and the strategies of the state in twentieth-century Britain. The extent to which the fate of the poor as social citizens has been intimately connected with their fate as political citizens is one of the central themes of the book.
