The selections included in this set illustrate both Chalmers' role as a social theorist and a practical exponent of innovative programs of social reform. Chalmers was an advocate of the voluntary principle of poor relief, one of the traditional responsibilities of the parishes of the post-Reformation Established Church of Scotland. In the midst of rampant urbanization and industrialization, he envisioned a society that would recover a sense of individual and communal responsibility.
