Opis: Social Welfare in New Zealand - Lusk Hugh H.

Excerpt from Social Welfare in New Zealand: The Result of Twenty Years of Progressive Social Legislation and Its Significance for the United States and Other Countries

The object with which this book has been written was that of placing on record, in a form that could be readily understood, the methods and results of a great social and political experiment at once unique in character and remarkable in its effects. In doing this the author has endeavoured to lay before his readers as clearly as possible the conditions under which this experiment has been undertaken, the purposes kept in view by those who conducted it, and the consequences, both social and economic, that have followed within a period of twenty years. He is under the impression that, while the country in which these experiments have been made is a small one compared with America, and while its people are but few in numbers, when compared with the population of the world's great Republic, the value of the lessons that may be drawn from them is not limited by the size of the country, or the numbers of its people.

A good many books have been written within the last few years dealing with New Zealand, some at least of which have excited the interest of intelligent readers both in Europe and America. These books have generally represented the impressions of visitors to the country, and their value has therefore depended mainly on the keenness of the perceptions and the unprejudiced judgment of the writers.
