Description

A review of the history of British criminology involves an article on each of the following periods: before 1935, 1935-1948, 1948-1960, 1960-1987, and the current state of criminology in Britain. One article covers the contributions of Hermann Mannheim. After an article on methodological developments in criminology, psychological contributions to criminology are reviewed. The impact of feminism on criminology in Britain is explored, as is criminal justice and criminal process. The history of crime in England is traced from 1300 to 1914, and the relationship between British criminology and the state is discussed. The series concludes with an article on radical criminology in Britain as the emergence of a competing paradigm. Thirteen articles on the history of British criminology encompass the history of criminological ideas, the formation of particular emphases, methods, problems, and personal accounts of major phases in the discipline's growth.
