The London Hanged

- Crime And Civil Society In The Eighteenth Century

Bag om The London Hanged

In eighteenth-century London the spectacle of a hanging was not simply a form of punishing transgressors. Rather it evidently served the more sinister purpose - for a privileged ruling class - of forcing the poor population of London to accept the criminalization of customary rights and new forms of private property.
