This book focuses on the way in which people were treated by the
police and military guards in nineteenth-century Prussia, in the
general context of Prussian bureaucratic development. It shows how
the daily routine of officialdom supported and promoted an image of
the police state, which placed the emphasis on violent methods in
dealing with the 'subjects' of those in authority. The main
argument of the book discusses the methods and standards of
everyday policing and the consequential creation of a classe
dangereuse. The author also shows how military routines were
adopted by civilian officials and policemen. Thus by the middle of
the century a military type of policing had become widespread and
generally unquestioned by high-ranking officials or ministers. The
book therefore offers an understanding of the repressive side of
the Prussian and German state since the middle of the nineteenth
century.
