Beschreibung
The criminal law has often been seen as central to the rule of the 18th century landed elite. Within detailed studies of every stage of the criminal process this volume explores key issues such as who used the law, for what purposes and with what effects It then challenges the view that the law was primarily the instrument of a small elite, portraying it instead as an arena of struggle, negotiation and compromise used by many different social groups. The criminal justice system may have sometimes been vulnerable to power but it was also useful in limiting it.

Über den Autor
Peter King has always been interested in writing, and decided to take his interest further by writing a book during the COVID-19 lockdowns from his job as a Teaching Assistant at a primary school. Prior to working at a school, he trained as a design draughtsman, working on domestic and industrial controls.
Another passion of his is sport-Peter is a keen badminton player and golfer. He also enjoys angling and following football and cricket. Peter spends as much time with his grandchildren, who share the same interests. Being a father and a grandfather, this has given him plenty of experiences that he has been able to build into his book.
