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. 504 Includes bibliographical references (p. 299-312) and index. 650 0 Social ethics |zEngland |xHistory |y19th century. 650 0 Social movements |zEngland |xHistory |y19th century. 650 0 Voluntarism |zEngland |xHistory |y19th century. 650 0 Social reformers |zEngland |xHistory |y19th century. 650 0 Moral development |zEngland |xHistory |y19th century. 651 0 England |xSocial conditions |y19th century. 651 0 England |xMoral conditions. 776 |z0-521-10014-3 776 |z0-521-83389-2 830 0 Cambridge social and cultural histories ; |v2. 906 BOOK
