Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines how justice in England during the 19th century was a privilege saved for the wealthy. The poor were denied justice due to laws allowing only those with significant wealth to pursue legal restitution. The author argues that this state of affairs was a historical anomaly in which the English legal system that had been established to protect citizens under the law had become a tool only available to the wealthy and powerful. The book explores the historical backdrop of this inequity, its lasting impact on English society, and the evolution of legal protections for all citizens. It also discusses recommendations put forth by a select committee to address the issue. This thought-provoking book will be of great interest to anyone concerned with the history of justice and equity.
