The Culture of Control by David Garland
Charts the dramatic changes in crime control and criminal justice that have occurred in Britain and America. This book explains these transformations by showing how the social organisation of society has prompted a series of political and cultural adaptations that alter how governments and citizens think and act in relation to crime.
Garland's book is more than just an important contribution to criminologyIt is also a major work of social analysis, which deserves to be read more widely...his account of changes in crime control also provides one of the clearest and most convincing characterizations of contemporary society in general. * Robert Reiner, The Times Literary Supplement *
