A major interdisciplinary study of the development of prisons,
hospitals and insane asylums in America and Europe, this book
resulted from discussions between its two editors about their work
on the history of hospitals, poor relief, deviance, and crime, and
a subsequent conference held in 1992 by the German Historical
Institute that attempted to assess the impacts of Foucault and
Elias. Seventeen contributors from six different countries with
backgrounds in history, sociology and criminology utilize various
methodological approaches and reflect the various viewpoints in the
theoretical debate over Foucault's work.
