The Civilization of Crime: Violence in Town and Country since the Middle Ages
Eric A. Johnson
Shows that both rural and urban communities in Sweden, Holland, England, and other countries were far more violent during the late Middle Ages. This book also challenges a number of other historical-sociological theories, among them that contemporary organized crime is new, and addresses debate about the meaning and usefulness of crime statistics.
