Hatchard 1806. 8vo. xii 5 - 302 10pp. without the final leaf with advertisements on recto one large folding table this a little creased. First edition. This was Colquhoun's major work on the question of poverty and pauperism its relationship to crime and disorder and the need for a new comprehensive system of police. This valuable work contains plans for a board of education national savings bank with state guarantee to depositors a system of reproductive work for the unemployed a national poor-rate uniformly assessed and the issue of a police gazette containing statistics of crime and descriptions of the persons of offenders. Colquhoun begins with a clear definition of 'poverty' which is to be distinguished from 'indigence'. In this he was following the lead of Jeremy Bentham and his sentiments clearly echo those of Bentham. He states that poverty is 'an indispensable and necessary ingredient in civil society' and is 'that state and condition � where the individual has no surplus in store and consequently no property but what is derived from the constant exercise of industry in the various occupations of life; or in other words it is the state of every one who must labour for subsistence. Poverty is therefore a most necessary and indispensable ingredient in society without which nations and communities could not exist in a state of civilization'. 'Indigence therefore and not poverty is the evil. It is that condition in society which implies want misery and distress. It is the state of any one who is destitute of the means of subsistence and is unable to labour to produce it to the extent nature required. The natural source of subsistence is the labour of the individual; while that remains with him he is denominated poor when it fails in whole or in part he becomes indigent.' London: J. Johnson and Co., 1824 hardcover
