Softcover / Paperback. Condition: Fine. First edition. Softcover. SIGNED. Crime control is in crisis. Not only have levels of crime risen but, more important, crime is increasingly regarded as a normal aspect of the social and economic system rather than disruption or deviance. The blurring boundaries between the criminal and the normal are evident in a number of areas from the activities of multinational corporations to the life of the inner city. In this book, the author develops a broad historical and sociological overview relating the rise and fall of effective crime control to different types of social structures. It traces the process of modernisation and industrialisation from the eighteenth to the mid twentieth centuries which established the social preconditions for effective control and management of criminality. In the early years of the present century it is clear that these preconditions are now being progressively undermined as industrial society undergoes profound changes in its direction of development. The result is traced through a variety of types of criminality and the progressive debilitation of existing institutions and processes of crime control. A major feature of this book is its wide scope and imaginative application of historical and theoretical perspectives on modernisation and capitalist social development to the contemporary problems of controlling a wide variety of crime. It represents a significant contribution to the ability of criminology and the sociology of crime to confront the dilemmas and controversies of the 21st century.

Paperback. Unpaginated, perhaps 35p., displaying 45 numbered images (most full-page; half in color; sketches shown vignette-size), presswork on glazed alkaline paperstock and softbound in 11.5x8 inch frenchfold wraps, signed on the half-title with brief inscription as "Jim Bama". Areas of damp-damage have noticeably affected lower corners of both front and rear covers, and have caused mild adhesions to a half-dozen terminal leaves (which we parted successfully, any scarring is inconspicuous). Bama's work is just as stunning as Remington's, with less range; these graphics are still portraits. With all faults, a good (good-only) copy.
