Crime Its Cause and Treatment by Clarence S. Darrow Pdf
Clarence Seward Darrow (1857 - 1938) was an American lawyer, leading member of the American Civil Liberties Union. Notable for his wit, he became one of the most famous American lawyers and civil libertarians, and a very influential legal mind in the first part of the 20th century. His books on crime and punishment, as well as on the morality and origins of the system, are classics of the libertarian movement, and a cry for attention about all that is wrong in the legal system. His two more famous books, Crime: Its Cause and Treatment, and Resist Not Evil, -books that will change the way you see many things-, are now part of the Timeless Wisdom Collection.
The Cause and Cure of Crime by Charles Richmond Henderson Pdf
Excerpt from The Cause and Cure of Crime The emphasis of Professor Henderson upon the fact that crime is not a disease is refreshing in view of many recent utterances, and indicates the sane view of the author upon the cause and cure of crime. This little book is offered in the expectation that it may present an outline of the problems and at the same time offer some suggestions to police officers, students, and members of courts on the matter of jails, influences of surroundings, and lack of education and right home conditions upon the creation of criminals. The well-known work of the author, Prison Reform and Criminal Law, should make this book equally welcome.

Excerpt from Crime: Its Cause and Treatment The physical origin of such abnormalities of the mind as are called crimina is a comparatively new idea. The Whole subject has long been dealt with from the standpoint of metaphysics. Man has slowly banished chance from the material world and left behavior alone outside the realm of cause and effect. It has not been long since insanity was treated as a moral defect. It is now universally accepted as a functional defect of the human structure in its relation to environment. My main effort is to show that the laws that control human behavior are as fixed and certain as those that control the physical world. In fact, that the manifestations of the mind and the actions of men are a part of the physical world. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Crime: Its Cause and Treatment by Clarence Seward Darrow Pdf
There can be no sane discussion of "crime" and "criminals" without an investigation of the meaning of the words. A large majority of men, even among the educated, speak of a "criminal" as if the word had a clearly defined meaning and as if men were divided by a plain and distinct line into the criminal and the virtuous. As a matter of fact, there is no such division, and from the nature of things, there never can be such a line. Strictly speaking, a crime is an act forbidden by the law of the land, and one which is considered sufficiently serious to warrant providing penalties for its commission. It does not necessarily follow that this act is either good or bad; the punishment follows for the violation of the law and not necessarily for any moral transgression. No doubt most of the things forbidden by the penal code are such as are injurious to the organized society of the time and place, and are usually of such a character as for a long period of time, and in most countries, have been classed as criminal. But even then it does not always follow that the violator of the law is not a person of higher type than the majority who are directly and indirectly responsible for the law. It is apparent that a thing is not necessarily bad because it is forbidden by the law. Legislators are forever repealing and abolishing criminal statutes, and organized society is constantly ignoring laws, until they fall into disuse and die. The laws against witchcraft, the long line of "blue laws," the laws affecting religious beliefs and many social customs, are well-known examples of legal and innocent acts which legislatures and courts have once made criminal. Not only are criminal statutes always dying by repeal or repeated violation, but every time a legislature meets, it changes penalties for existing crimes and makes criminal certain acts that were not forbidden before. Judging from the kind of men sent to the State legislatures and to Congress, the fact that certain things are forbidden does not mean that these things are necessarily evil; but rather, that politicians believe there is a demand for such legislation from the class of society that is most powerful in political action. No one who examines the question can be satisfied that a thing is intrinsically wrong because it is forbidden by a legislative body.
