Outcast London: A Study in the Relationship Between Classes in Victorian Society


Add your own review!

Overview

"In the second half of the nineteenth century, Victorian middle and upper classes felt increasingly threatened by the masses of ""outcast London."" Gareth Stedman Jones, working from a mass of statistical and documentary evidence, argues that after 1850 London passed through a crisis of social and economic development. Outcast London is a fascinating and important study of the problem at the center of the crisis: the casual poor and their fraught relations with the labor market, with housing and with middle-class London."
