Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a groundbreaking examination of a penal system in a time when transportation of convicts was deemed a punishment, a practice the author thoroughly dissects as an expensive, ineffective, and inhumane practice. In contrast, the author presents a detailed plan for a new system of 'Houses of Hard Labour,' places where the worst criminals would be subjected to lives of hard work and rigorous discipline. With the establishment of such institutions, the author argues that society would benefit twofold: by debilitating a criminal element, and by receiving economic rewards through convict labor. The author weighs the pros and cons of his proposed system, provides extensive argument for his suggested improvements, and through careful analysis ultimately presents a compelling case for a complete overhaul of the penal system. This book is a captivating read for anyone interested in penology, criminology, or the evolving state of imprisonment as a form of punishment. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
