Hardback. Condition: New. Examines the formation of state surveillance and the emergence of institutionalized political policing in late Victorian and Edwardian Britain.This book deals with the formation of state surveillance and the emergence of institutionalized political policing in late Victorian and Edwardian Britain. Little has been written on this early formative period for the British security state, which began in earnest as a response to the Fenian dynamite campaign of the 1880s.
