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
