This work charts the historical development of a postcolonial settlement that has given rise to a racialized distintion between the 'deserving' and 'undeserving' poor, the latest incarnation of which is a distinction between a deserving, neglected white working class and 'others' who are undeserving, not indigenous, and not white.
