Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Penal Methods: Criminals, Witches, Lunatics Criminology is the study of the causes and treatment of crime. To track the offender is a problem for the police; to determine his guilt or innocence is the work of the courts. Graphic accounts of his crime and capture, descriptions of his trial and conviction, or reports of the last scene when he stood upon the scaffold, are not criminology. The dreary records of convict mismanagement by the Governor of Gaolblank, and the ghastlycheerful reminiscences of the Chaplain of Chokee even the fascinating studies of, say, Edgar Poe, and Conan Doyle, in the art of Deduction are not criminology. We know now, and are beginning to realize, that nothing ever happens without a cause. A man can no more exist underived from the Past or effectless upon the Future, than he can walk suspended in the air. Therefore, when we look upon a person who is branded as a criminal, we have to account for him. He may be degraded enough as we find him, he may be a drunken, homeless wanderer or street-corner man, but what made him like this? He started some few years back as a helpless baby, with a little bright, wondering face looking out on life. What has been impressed into it since then? It was a blank page, with only the water-mark of heredity, and a certain grade of quality and texture upon it. What have we written there? what has the whole community been doing to make these lines, now so deeply graven, or whence came they? How is this stain on him, and therefore on all of us, to be cleared away? What must be done to help with a strong hand: that will be criminology.

Download or read book American Penology written by Thomas G. Blomberg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-12 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of American Penology is to provide a story of punishment's past, present, and likely future. The story begins in the 1600s, in the setting of colonial America, and ends in the present. As the story evolves through various historical and contemporary settings, America's efforts to understand and control crime unfold. The context, ideas, practices, and consequences of various reforms in the ways crime is punished are described and examined. Though the book's broader scope and purpose can be distinguished from prior efforts, it necessarily incorporates many contributions from this rich literature. While this enlarged second edition incorporates select descriptions and contingencies in relation to particular eras and punishment ideas and practices, it does not limit itself to individual "histories" of these eras. Instead, it uses history to frame and help explain particular punishment ideas and practices in relation to the period and context from which they evolved. The authors focus upon selected demographic, economic, political, religious, and intellectual contingencies that are associated with historical and contemporary eras to show how these contingencies shaped America's punishment ideals and practices. In offering a new understanding of received notions of crime control in this edition, Blomberg and Lucken not only provide insights into the future of punishment, but also show how the larger culture of control extends beyond the field of criminology to have an impact on declining levels of democracy, freedom, and privacy.
Download or read book Scandinavian Penal History Culture and Prison Practice written by Peter Scharff Smith and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-07-28 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book draws on historical and cross-disciplinary studies to critically examine penal practices in Scandinavia. The Nordic countries are often hailed by international observers as ‘model societies’, with egalitarian welfare policies, low rates of poverty, humane social policies and human rights oriented internal agendas. This book, however, paints a much more nuanced picture of the welfare policies, ideologies and social control in strong centralistic states. Based on extensive new empirical data, leading Nordic and international scholars discuss the relationship between prison conditions in Scandinavia and Scandinavian social policy more generally, and argue that it is not always liberating and constructive to be embraced by a powerful welfare state. This book is essential reading for researchers of state punishment in Scandinavia, and it is highly relevant for anyone interested in the ‘Nordic Model’ of social policy.
Download or read book The Dilemma of Penal Reform written by Hermann Mannheim and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 1939, The Dilemma of Penal Reform presents Hermann Mannheim’s discussion on the impact of economic, social, and legal factors on methods of punishment. Set against the background of author’s wide knowledge in German, French, American and Soviet penal methods, the volume brings comparative analysis to address the question, whether it is possible to combine the old practice of making life inside prison less attractive than outside with the outlook aiming at the regeneration of prisoners, and to reconcile the stigma connected with a fair chance of rehabilitation. It also examines the conflict between the requirement of modern penology and some traditional principles of criminal procedure specially for the juvenile courts. One of the pioneering works in the history of Penal Reform, this book will be of interest to scholars and researchers of legal history, law, sociology, and social work.
Download or read book Punishment and Social Structure written by Georg Rusche and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why are certain methods of punishment adopted or rejected in a given social situation? To what extent is the development of penal methods determined by basic social relations? The answers to these questions are complex, and go well beyond the thesis that institutionalized punishment is simply for the protection of society. While today's punishment of offenders often incorporates aspects of psychology, psychiatry, and sociology, at one time there was a more pronounced difference in criminal punishment based on class and economics. Punishment and Social Structure originated from an article written by Georg Rusche in 1933 entitled "Labor Market and Penal Sanction: Thoughts on the Sociology of Criminal Justice." Originally published in Germany by the Frankfurt Institute of Social Research, this article became the germ of a theory of criminology that laid the groundwork for all subsequent research in this area. Rusche and Kirchheimer look at crime from an historical perspective, and correlate methods of punishment with both temporal cultural values and economic conditions. The authors classify the history of crime into three primary eras: the early Middle Ages, in which penance and fines were the predominant modes of punishment; the later Middle Ages, in which harsh corporal punishment and capital punishment moved to the forefront; and the seventeenth century, in which the prison system was more fully developed. They also discuss more recent forms of penal practice, most notably under the constraints of a fascist state. The majority of the book was translated from German into English, and then reshaped by Rusche's co-author, Otto Kirchheimer, with whom Rusche actually had little discussion. While the main body of Punishment and Social Structure are Rusche's ideas, Kirchheimer was responsible for bringing the book more up-to-date to include the Nazi and fascist era. Punishment and Social Structure is a pioneering work that sets a paradigm for the study of crime and punishment.

Download or read book Methods of Penal Administration in the United States written by Edward Grubb and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-17 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Methods of Penal Administration in the United States: Notes of a Personal Enquiry, February and March, 1904 In the course of eight weeks it is quite impossible to obtain anything like an adequate view of so multifarious a subject as American penal administration. Ina vast Union, where each State has its own laws and institutions, - where some States are progressive and others backward; where one will spend money freely in trying to reform its criminals, while another thinks chiefly of their labour as an important source of revenue for the State; where some have experimented largely in trying substitutes for imprisonment, while others adhere to ancient methods, - the conditions vary so greatly that it is impossible in a few sentences to summarise ones impressions of the whole. The best method of conveying to others some of those impressions will be to deal consecutively with the chief classes of institutions visited, and the methods of administration which they illustrate.
