This fourth volume in the Official History of Criminal Justice in England and Wales delves into the evolving politics of law and order, tracing a gradual shift towards heightened political conflict and disputes. Until the early 1970s, law and order seldom held a prominent position in political discourse. However, this began to change with the Conservative Party utilizing crime and penal policy as a means of setting itself apart from its opponents. This volume meticulously charts these transformations in the politics of law and order and explores the escalating fervor of political debate surrounding key issues, such as the Labour Party undergoing a significant ideological shift in the 1990s.
This comprehensive work will appeal to students of British political history, criminology, and sociology, offering valuable insights into the complex dynamics of law and society in the United Kingdom.
