The Problem of the Aged Poor is a book written by Geoffrey Drage in 1895. It is a comprehensive analysis of the issue of poverty among the elderly population in England during the late 19th century. Drage examines the economic, social, and political factors that contributed to the problem and proposes various solutions to address it.The book begins with an overview of the historical context and demographic trends that led to the rise of the aged poor in England. Drage argues that the decline of traditional forms of support, such as family and charity, and the growth of industrialization and urbanization, created a vulnerable population of elderly people who were unable to support themselves.Drage then delves into the economic factors that contribute to poverty among the elderly, such as low wages, inadequate pensions, and limited access to healthcare. He also examines the social and political factors that exacerbate the problem, including discrimination based on age and gender, and the lack of political will to address the issue.Throughout the book, Drage proposes various solutions to the problem of the aged poor. He advocates for the creation of state-funded pensions, improved access to healthcare, and the establishment of charitable organizations to support the elderly. He also argues for greater public awareness and education on the issue of poverty among the elderly.Overall, The Problem of the Aged Poor is a seminal work in the history of social welfare policy in England. It provides a detailed analysis of the causes and consequences of poverty among the elderly and proposes solutions that continue to be relevant today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
