Description

Explore the complex history of European social control through this scholarly collection from Ohio State University Press. This first volume of a two-part series offers a deep look into how societies maintained order between the years 1500 and 1800. This book moves beyond traditional studies by examining both formal and informal institutions. Instead of looking at control as a one-way street, the contributors analyze how individuals and groups participate in and shape the very methods used to regulate them. This perspective provides a more complete picture of historical social dynamics. Readers will find a wide range of comparative studies covering various levels of authority. From the influence of the church and guilds to the actions of police and the practice of shaming, this volume provides a broad view of how power functioned in early modern Europe. It is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in history, crime, and criminal justice.
