In eighteenth-century London the spectacle of a hanging was not simply a form of punishing transgressors. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRather it evidently served the most sinister purpose--for a prvileged ruling class--of forcing the poor population of London to accept the criminalization of customary rights and the new forms of private property. Necessity drove the city's poor into inevitable conflict with the changing property laws, such that all the working-class men and women of London had good reason to fear the example of Tyburn's Triple Tree. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn this new edition Peter Linebaugh reinforces his original arguments with responses to his critics based on an impressive array of historical sources. As the trend of capital punishment intensifies with the spread of global capitalism, \u003ci\u003eThe London Hanged\u003c\/i\u003e also gains in contemporary relevance.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePeter Linebaugh\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of History at the University of Toledo.
