About this ebook
Focusing on Belgium from the mid-nineteenth century until the First World War, Vleugels presents a study of the drunkard in society. Shifting attitudes and medical debates are documented and analysed within the context of wider social and political change. The study is unique in offering a social history of Belgium through the lens of drunkenness, and in its focus on the role of drink in the formation of class, gender and national identities.
