Reconstructing the Criminal: Culture, Law, and Policy in England, 1830–1914
Wiener, Martin Joel (Rice University, Houston)
This work interprets criminal justice history by relating it to intellectual and cultural history. Starting from the assumption that policies and statutes originate in a society's values, the author demonstrates how changes in criminal law and penal practice related to the changing values of Victorian and Edwardian society.
