In this 2003 book, Willrich uncovers the contested origins and paradoxical consequences of two protean concepts in the cosmopolitan cities of industrial America at the turn of the twentieth century: the modern ideas of social responsibility for crime and the belief that the law should aim for social, not merely individual, justice.
