• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This volume is a sequel to Emsley's Crime and Society in England, 1750-1900, taking a thematic approach the book starts by addressing the nature and interpretation of crime across the century, and ends by looking at shifting responses to crime, particularly with reference to the police and penal policy. The role of the media in the understanding of crime and criminals is one that attracts considerable attention; the discussion and analysis here is aided by the use of visual images in the text.

This book is the first to draw significantly on the Police Archive at the Open University with its extensive holdings ranging from the papers of the Association of Chief Police Officers to the memoirs of individual police officers.
