"Proposals for building, in each province, a workhouse, almshouse, or hospital as the best means of improving the trade and manufacture of linen cloth" is a book written by the English economist Richard Haynes. In his work, he reveals the importance of introducing workhouses or hospitals in each region in order to stimulate the development of trade and the production of linen fabric. The author argues that this idea will contribute to the support of the poor and military disabled, and will also help in solving the problem of unemployment. Based on economic and social principles, Haynes' book is an important 18th-century document that proposed revolutionary approaches to social welfare and economic development."
