Overall summaryThe introduction of the Liberal reforms 1906 -1914 are argued to be the foundations for the modern Welfare State because the change in attitudes towards government involvement allows for effective social reform to be implemented. The Liberal Reforms were introduced for a number of reasons, economic, social, political and war all played an equal role in the introduction for different reforms however, each reform was implemented as a reaction to one of these factors. For example, due to social change, poverty was recognized as a nation wide concern that effected the country as a whole economically and in foreign policy. The high levels of poverty resulted in unfit recruits, disgruntled working class and national inefficiency. However, the catalyst for starting off the introduction of the Liberal Reforms was the Boer War as it highlighted the consequences of ineffective welfare systems preventing vast numbers of people falling poverty. |
