A History of English Prison Administration, Hardback Book

A History of English Prison Administration Hardback

Part of the Routledge Library Editions: The History of Crime and Punishment series

Hardback

Description

This title, first published in 1981, draws from an extensive range of national and local material, and examines how innovations in policy and administration, while solving problems or setting new objectives, frequently created or disclosed fresh difficulties, and brought different types of people into the administration and management of prisons, whose interests, values and expectations in turn often had significant effects upon penal ideas and their practical applications.

Special attention has been paid to the study of recruitment, the work and influence of gaolers, keepers, governors, and highly administrative officials.

This comprehensive book will be of interest to students of criminology and history.
