Description

This comprehensive first volume examines social control throughout European history from 1500 to 1800, offering a distinctive two-volume collection of essays that sets itself apart through rigorous comparative analysis. Contributors explore social control methods across multiple levels, from formal institutions like police and the church to informal mechanisms such as shaming and guild systems. The work treats these formal and informal institutions as two-way interactive processes rather than one-directional impositions. Unlike previous historical studies, the scholars investigate how individuals and groups subject to control actively participate in and shape the mechanisms of their own regulation, providing fresh perspectives on the dynamics between authority and society during this transformative period in European history.

Key Features

Volume 1 of a two-volume collection covering the 1500-1800 period of European social control history.

Features comparative analysis of social control methods across multiple institutional levels including police, church, guilds, and shaming practices.

Examines formal and informal institutions as interactive two-way processes rather than top-down mechanisms.

Published by Ohio State University Press with scholarly essays from multiple contributors on crime and criminal justice history.
