The nature of crime and policing has changed considerably in the 20th century. Using South Wales as a case study, this text places the discussion in its historical context, and contributes to debates on crime, policing and punishment. South Wales has the geography of a county police, and some of the problems of a metropolitan police area. The local police force patrol isolated villages and market streets, old and new industral centres, seaport and seaside towns, and the large cities of Cardiff and Swansea.
David Jones was a Professor of history at Swansea University and wrote works on the nature of Welsh society since the industrial revolution.
