During the sixteenth century, England experienced a large increase in its population, where migrations of rural workers to urban areas in search of jobs occurred in several English cities. This increase has brought a number of social problems, such as rising numbers of miserable people and crime.

The Law of the Poor was created in 1601 to try to end these problems. However, this law did not work because of its methodology. The Law of the Poor was more punitive than protective. People were collected and forced to work in exchange for food. The conditions were subaltern and there were even the scourges of people who refused. It drove people away.
