Originally published in 1976. This study deals with crime as social history in Germany and France during the nineteenth century. It establishes the broad statistical patterns of crime over the century so that the crime phenomenon can be analysed in the light of the other main trends of economic and social life. One basic concern is the relationship between crime and economic condition. The second main issue is to establish whether specifically rural and urban patterns of crime can be isolated. The third main concern is to establish whether any relationship existed between patterns of delinquency and the social upheaval which accompanied industrialisation and urbanisation. These three main issues continue as important questions in considering modern day crime. Nineteenth century Germany and France provide an excellent context in which to examine them because of the substantial urbanisation and industrialisation which occurred between 1830 and 1914. As well as providing an important contribution to the history of nineteenth century society this book also indicates important lessons for the contemporary world.

Spanish Translation. Crime victims have many needs, most of which our criminal justice system ignores. In fact, the justice system often increases the injury. Offenders are less ignored by this system, but their real needs-for accountability, for closure, for healing-are also left unaddressed. Such failures are not accidental, but are inherent in the very definitions and assumptions which govern our thinking about crime and justice. Howard Zehr proposes a "restorative" model which is more consistent with experience, with the past, and with the biblical tradition. Based on the needs of victims and offenders, he takes into account recent studies and biblical principles. 288 Pages.

Hvordan bør vi som samfund reagere på en kriminel handling? Hvad skal der ske, når der er begået en lovovertrædelse eller krænkelse? Hvad forventer retssamfundet? Howard Zehr forskningsfelt og mission er at ændre forståelsen af, hvad ret og retfærdighed bør være i et moderne samfund. Han er idemand bag principperne for "genoprettende ret". I denne lille bog giver han indblik i, hvordan filosofien om og principperne for genoprettende ret (restorative justice) skal forstås, og i hvordan principperne finder anvendelse i praksis. Principperne med ledsagende anvisninger går på, at genoprettende ret i stedet for kun at fokusere på at gerningsmanden skal få, hvad han "fortjener", fokuserer mere på alle de involveredes behov omkring en given forbrydelse: ofret, gerningsmanden og lokalsamfundet.
