Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a rare glimpse into the state of the British prison system in the early 19th century. The author, who visited various jails and prisons in England and Scotland, was motivated by a desire to improve the treatment of those who were incarcerated and to reduce crime through reform. The author provides detailed accounts of their travels and their observations of the physical conditions, societal attitudes, and prevailing modes of punishment they encountered. The book makes clear that the primary function of prisons at that time was to inflict suffering and deter crime rather than rehabilitate offenders. The author advocates for a more compassionate approach to criminal justice and argues that providing prisoners with basic necessities such as food, clothing, and education would foster respect for authority and increase the likelihood of their successful integration back into society after the completion of their sentences. This text remains an important historical document that provides insight into the evolution of prison reform and the development of a more humane approach to criminal justice in the English-speaking world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780282999193_0
