Anti-slavery, temperance, charity organisation, cruelty prevention, 'social purity' advocates, and more, all promoted their causes through mobilisation of citizen volunteer support. This 2004 book sets out to explore the world of these volunteer networks, their foci of concern, their patterns of recruitment, their methods of operation and the responses they aroused. In its exploration of this culture of self-consciously altruistic associational effort, the book provides a systematic survey of moral reform movements as a distinct tradition of citizen action over this period, as well as casting light on the formation of a middle-class culture torn, in this stage of economic and political nation-building, between acceptance of a market-organised society and unease about the cultural consequences of doing so. This is a revelatory book that is both compelling and accessible.Cambridge social and cultural histories ;2.Social ethicsEnglandHistory19th centurySocial movementsEnglandHistory19th centuryVoluntarismEnglandHistory19th centurySocial reformersEnglandHistory19th centuryMoral developmentEnglandHistory19th centuryEnglandSocial conditions19th centuryEnglandMoral conditionsSocial ethicsHistorySocial movementsHistoryVoluntarismHistorySocial reformersHistoryMoral developmentHistory303.3/72/094209034Roberts M.
