That Last Waif: Or, Social Quarantine: a Brief

Více o knize

Originally published in 1914, this book argues that the problems of poverty, crime, and disease are all interconnected, and that the only way to solve them is through a comprehensive program of social reform. Fletcher identifies social quarantine - the idea that society has the right to protect itself from those who are a threat to its well-being - as the key to achieving this goal.
