Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Dangerous Glasses of Ni York and Twenty Years Work Among Them The great pioneer in the United States, in the labors of penal Reform and the prevention of crime, - Edward Livingston, - said as long ago as 1833, in his famous "Introductory Report to the Code of Reform and Prison Discipline": "As prevention in the diseases of the body is less painful, less expensive, and more efficacious than the most skillful cure, so in the moral maladies of society, to arrest the vicious before the profligacy assumes the shape of crime; to take away from the poor the cause or pretence of relieving themselves by fraud or theft; to reform them by education and make their own industry contribute to their support, although difficult and expensive, will be found more effectual in the suppression of offences and more economical than the best organized system of punishment." - (p.322.)
