Law, Crime and English Society, 1660-1830 Book

This book examines how eighteenth-century law was made, defined, administered, and used. Written from both Marxist and liberal perspectives, it introduces the reader to current debates about the nature of English law and society in the era in which England became the world's leading nation. Contributions from leading international historians investigate eighteenth-century society's use of its legal institutions and reflect on contemporary concepts of corruption, oppression, and institutional efficiency. The result is an invaluable and unequalled account of the legal bases of eighteenth-century society.Read More
