Document Summary
The product of a convergence of ideas . Not a science that was destined to appear . Crime control in 16th and 17th century, england. ( hue and cry ) (everybody in the community was involved in this system, to apprehend that criminal, which make the community tight-knit since everyone wanted to belong to that community and feel safe) Eventually, hue and cry became standardized and part of the legislation 1285. Once villages become larger, they would select a few to carry out this policing, and these were the first constables we can see in history. There is a massive growth of the city and a lot more mobility as england moves from an agricultural society to an industrialized society. More laws being created (with more laws being created, there is a greater need for policing) Chronic corruption (lots of examples where police don"t uphold the laws, such as slipping licences under the table to alehouses)
