Chris Grover charts the historical development of such policies from prohibition in the 1830s and how opposition to it was overcome in the 1970s, thereby allowing the increasing supplementation of the wages of poorly paid working people. He draws upon original archival research to show that over time wage supplements have been seen as both deeply problematic for, and of great benefit to, the economy, and to the moral and social life of wage workers. In analyzing the political economy of wage supplements, Grover also deals with gendered assumptions about the role of women in wage work and 'the family', which have framed the use and critique of wage supplements. He focuses on Britain, but also examines wage supplements in New Zealand and the USA. 606 $aSociology 606 $aEconomic policy 606 $aWelfare state 606 $aPoverty 606 $aIndustrial sociology 606 $aSocial policy 606 $aGender Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X35000 606 $aEconomic Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34010 606 $aPolitics of the Welfare State$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X33050 606 $aDevelopment Aid$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913040 606 $aSociology of Work$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22240 606 $aSocial Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34020 615 0$aSociology. 615 0$aEconomic policy. 615 0$aWelfare state. 615 0$aPoverty. 615 0$aIndustrial sociology. 615 0$aSocial policy. 615 14$aGender Studies. 615 24$aEconomic Policy. 615 24$aPolitics of the Welfare State. 615 24$aDevelopment Aid. 615 24$aSociology of Work. 615 24$aSocial Policy. 676 $a331.2/30941 700 $aGrover$b Chris$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01061553 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910253348103321 996 $aSocial Security and Wage Poverty$92519194 997 $aUNINA
