This book examines the children of the Irish poor law in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Belfast, an economically powerful yet deeply divided city, self-consciously British but geographically Irish. Through a close examination of the spaces of engagement between welfare authorities and the city's poorest families, it explores the increasing intervention of the State in family welfare and the care of the child.
