The origin of poverty in East End dates back to the mid eighteenth century, when the
population of London began to grow at an unprecedented rate. It caused a high demand
for cheap housing. London slums arose initially as a result of rapid population growth
and industrialization. They became notorious for overcrowding, unsanitary and squalid
living conditions. Most well-off Victorians were ignorant or pretended to be ignorant of
the subhuman slum life, and many, who heard about it, believed that the slums were the
outcome of laziness, sin and vice of the lower classes. However, a number of socially
conscious writers, social investigators, moral reformers, preachers and journalists, who
sought solution to this urban malady in the second half of the nineteenth century, argued
convincingly that the growth of slums was caused by poverty, unemployment, social
exclusion and homelessness.
