"Crime and Punishment in England, 1100-1990: An Introductory History" by Christopher Harrison explores the evolution of criminal law and societal responses to crime over nearly nine centuries. The book examines how changes in social attitudes, political power, and economic conditions influenced legal frameworks and law enforcement practices. It discusses landmark cases, the development of various punishments, and the role of the justice system in reflecting and shaping public morality. The narrative highlights the interplay between crime and society, illustrating how historical contexts have transformed ideas about justice, punishment, and rehabilitation in England.
