Elizabeth Dale discusses the changes in criminal law during that period, tracing shifts in policing, law, the courts, and punishment. She also analyzes the role that popular justice - lynch mobs, vigilance committees, law-and-order societies, and community shunning - played in the development of America's criminal justice system. This book explores the relation between changes in America's criminal justice system and its constitutional order"-- 0aCriminal justice, administration of - United States - history.42uhttp://www.h-net.org/reviews/showrev.php?id=3478142uhttp://www.h-net.org/reviews/showrev.php?id=36995 cBK
