Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a thorough examination of the momentous change in Britain's criminal justice system brought about by the 1853 Act, which replaced transportation with penal servitude. The author, a Home Office official closely involved in the bill's preparation, shares insights into the motivations behind the shift and its consequences. The book traces the decline of transportation as a viable punishment, detailing the influence of the Molesworth Committee and growing opposition in Australia. It explores the difficulties faced by the government in finding an alternative, ultimately opting for penal servitude with a 'ticket-of-leave' system. The author provides statistics on the numbers transported and sentenced to penal servitude, analyzing the effectiveness of the new regime. The book also sheds light on the challenges of dealing with female convicts, for whom no suitable employment or rehabilitation options existed. The author discusses the potential benefits of establishing a new penal colony and the difficulties of continuing to incarcerate the worst offenders within Britain. By presenting a detailed account of this significant transition in criminal justice policy, the author offers valuable insights into the complexities of punishment, rehabilitation, and the evolving nature of British society in the mid-19th century. 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 9781332189373_0
