Gun Culture or Gun Control? presents the first substantial analysis of the social and political reactions to events such as the Dunblane disaster in 1996 and also examines many of the wider issues relating to gun control in the United Kingdom.
Rigorously comparative throughout, Peter Squires provides a non-partisan exploration of the differences between attitudes to firearms and their control in Britain and in the United States. Amongst the topics the author considers are:
*the social history of firearms on both sides of the Atlantic
*the differing policy directions adopted in Britain and the USA
*media coverage of the gun question
*firearms and policing
*the future of the gun in society.
