- 'The Expansion of public Order Law in Britain' is a comprehensive socio-legal history of British state responses to social and political protest and disorder. Its scope measures the continuity and change of these responses over a 200 year period and includes detailed analysis of diverse movements and their varied relationships with the police. The extensive research required to complete this broad study was the result of three years of data collection that utilised 50 Acts of Parliament, extensive analysis of Parliamentary debates, over 50 case law transcripts, and hundreds of official reports, newspaper articles and other more esoteric primary sources.
