520    The Old Poor Law in England and Wales, administered by the
       local parish, dispensed benefits to paupers providing a 
       uniquely comprehensive, pre-modern system of relief. 
       Remaining in force until 1834, the law provided goods and 
       services to keep the poor alive.Combining short- and long-
       form articles and essays, Providing for the Poor brings 
       together academics and practitioners from across 
       disciplines to re-examine the micro-politics of poverty in
       the long eighteenth century through the eyes of the poor, 
       their providers and enablers. From the providence of the 
       parochial sixpence given in order to move a beggar on, to 
       coercive marriages, plebeian clothing and the much broader
       implications of vagrancy towards the end of the long 
       eighteenth century, this volume aims to bridge the gaps in
       our understanding of the experiences of people across the 
       social spectrum whose lives were touched by the Old Poor 
       Law. It brings together some of the wider arguments 
       concerning the nature of welfare during economically 
       testing times, and navigates the rising bureaucracy 
       inherent in the system, to produce a radical new history 
       of the Old Poor Law in astonishing detail.
