Elizabeth Dale discusses the changes in criminal law during that period, tracing shifts in policing, law, the courts, and punishment.

This book explores the relation between changes in America's criminal justice system and its constitutional order.

History of Criminal Justice, Fifth Edition, traces the historical development of criminal justice, focusing on the American experience. It examines ways in which human beings and their societies have dealt with the issues of crime and punishment. The book also covers developments in Europe and Britain, both as an antecedent to the national experience and as a parallel evolution of ideas and practices that have influenced American criminal justice. A treatment of ancient and medieval history has been included to both illustrate the antiquity of the issue of crime and punishment, and to provide readers with an overview of the earliest developments. The discussions cover criminal justice in ancient times; crime and punishment before the Lateran Council of 1215 through to the Renaissance (c. 1150-1550); criminal justice and the English Constitution up to 1689; criminal justice on the North American colonial frontier (1607-1700); and the Enlightenment and criminal justice. The book also covers the American Revolution and criminal justice; early American penology, European prisons, and Australia; early nineteenth-century law enforcement; turning points in criminal justice (1787-1910); corrections in modern America; law enforcement professionalism and the establishment of a criminal justice system; and the era of Homeland Security.* Spans all of western history, and examines the core beliefs about human nature and society that informed the development of criminal justice systems. The fifth edition gives increased coverage of American law enforcement, corrections, and legal systems * Each chapter is enhanced with supplemental "Timeline," "Time Capsule," and "Featured Outlaw" boxes as well as discussion questions, notes and problems * Contains discussion questions, notes, learning objectives, key terms lists, biographical vignettes of key historical figures, and "History Today" exercises to engage the reader and encourage critical thinking

The history of criminal justice in modern Germany has become a vibrant field of research, as demonstrated in this volume. Following an introductory survey, the twelve chapters examine major topics in the history of crime and criminal justice from Imperial Germany, through the Weimar and Nazi eras, to the early postwar years. These topics include case studies of criminal trials, the development of juvenile justice, and the efforts to reform the penal code, criminal procedure, and the prison system. The collection also reveals that the history of criminal justice has much to contribute to other areas of historical inquiry: it explores the changing relationship of criminal justice to psychiatry and social welfare, analyzes representations of crime and criminal justice in the media and literature, and uses the lens of criminal justice to illuminate German social history, gender history, and the history of sexuality.

This popular one-volume analysis of the evolution of American criminal justice places contemporary issues of crime and justice in historical perspective. Walker identifies the major periods in the development of the American system of criminal justice, from the small institutions of the colonial period to the creation of the police, the prison, and the juvenile court in the nineteenth century and the search for professionalism in the twentieth century. He argues that the democratic tradition is responsible for the worst as well as the best in the history of criminal justice in the United States. Offering a challenging perspective on current controversies in the administration of criminal justice in light of historical origins, the author explores the evolving conflict between the advocates of crime control and the advocates of due process.Now in its second edition, Popular Justice has been completely revised to include the most recent scholarship on crime and justice. Walker has updated his analysis of the history of American criminal justice and explores the tension between popular passions and the rule of law. He examines changing patterns in criminal activity, the institutional development of the system of criminal justice, and the major issues concerning the administration of justice. Timely and comprehensive, this text will be useful for courses in criminal justice, legal history, and criminology.
