History, Politics & Society

'History, Politics and Society' deals with the affairs of human beings. The categories overlap to a degree: 'History' describes changes in those affairs, and encompasses the other two; 'Politics' is about how people govern themselves; and 'Society' is about how people organize and conduct their lives. Questions here range from ancient history to history-in-the-making, political views to decisions of lawmakers, and present and past societies and how people relate to each other within their societies.

If you buy more fuel, you will want to know how much you are buying so that you can work out how much you should pay. And so on.

How did slums originate?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Slums originated from the practice of people camping outside of city gates or city walls. Rural people looking for shelter or protection would often move closer to the walls and gates of the city. Also, merchants & traders seeing a chance to do business would set up shop outside the walls & gates. Eventually the ruling noble would see the tax benefits of new citizens and wall in & protect these people. Decrees & laws were passed that certain peoples could only live in certain areas... each to his own kind.... and slums, slumlords, and each to his own kind, and each to my own will I owe took root. So basically slums originated from those who could not protect themselves depending on those who could. Part of the city, but not part of the city.
