Crime, Protest and Police in Modern British Society - Hardcover
This collection of essays offers much new, original and challenging material in the fields of crime, protest and policing. Employing the skills of both the historian and the criminologist, it ranges across rural and urban worlds, presenting both highly localized case studies and the broad sweep of a synoptic survey, and approaching the genre from both a historical and a cultural perspective.
This book raises issues of central concern not only to scholars and academics, but to everyone concerned with crime, justice and order within the complexities of modern society. It does honour to a leading figure in the modern renaissance of Welsh history but also outlines, in its own right, issues that illuminate the tension between individual rights and freedoms on the one hand, and the imperatives of the ordered, policed society on the other.
