"A comprehensive, well-researched, and insightful study, "The Criminals of Lima and Their Worlds" brings together in a single volume a series of issues that other studies have treated separately: attitudes toward criminals and the sociocultural construction of crime; strategies and quotidian practices of policing; the importation and imperfect adoption of European positivist criminology; prison regimes and the birth of the penitentiary; and the relationship between crime, the courts, and broader questions of political power."--David S. Parker, author of "The Idea of the Middle Class: White-Collar Workers and Peruvian Society, 1900-1950"…mehr
