520 |a This volume will be a sequel to Emsley's Crime and Society in England, 1750-1900, and will take a thematic approach. The book starts by addressing the nature and interpretation of crime across the century, and ends by looking at shifting responses to crime, particularly with reference to the police and penal policy. The role of the media in the understanding of crime and criminals is one that attracts considerable attention; the discussion and analysis here will be aided by the use of visual images in the text. This book will be the first to draw significantly on the Police Archive at the Open University with its extensive holdings ranging from the papers of the Association of Chief Police Officers to the memoirs of individual police officers. The book will also benefit from the opportunity to reproduce some photographs and cartoons.
