  • The London School of Economics and Political Science in the Shadow Of
    The London School of Economics and Political Science In the Shadow of the Prison Gates: An Institutional Analysis of Early Release Policy and Practice in England and Wales, 1960 – 1995 Thomas Charles Guiney A thesis submitted to the Department of Social Policy of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, October 2015. Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the MPhil/PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 99,995 words. 2 Abstract This thesis explores the historical development of early release policy and practice in England and Wales between 1960 - 1995. The evolution of criminal justice as a public policy concern has attracted considerable interest within the literature but this has tended to focus on the role of individuals as key agents of policy change or the ‘big picture’ socio-economic shifts associated with late twentieth-century modernity. Comparatively little attention has been paid to the mediating role of institutions at the intersection between policy and politics.

  • Missouri State Archives Finding Aid 5.20
    Missouri State Archives Finding Aid 5.20 OFFICE OF SECRETARY OF STATE COMMISSIONS PARDONS, 1836- Abstract: Pardons (1836-2018), restorations of citizenship, and commutations for Missouri convicts. Extent: 66 cubic ft. (165 legal-size Hollinger boxes) Physical Description: Paper Location: MSA Stacks ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION Alternative Formats: Microfilm (S95-S123) of the Pardon Papers, 1837-1909, was made before additions, interfiles, and merging of the series. Most of the unmicrofilmed material will be found from 1854-1876 (pardon certificates and presidential pardons from an unprocessed box) and 1892-1909 (formerly restorations of citizenship). Also, stray records found in the Senior Reference Archivist’s office from 1836-1920 in Box 164 and interfiles (bulk 1860) from 2 Hollinger boxes found in the stacks, a portion of which are in Box 164. Access Restrictions: Applications or petitions listing the social security numbers of living people are confidential and must be provided to patrons in an alternative format. At the discretion of the Senior Reference Archivist, some records from the Board of Probation and Parole may be restricted per RSMo 549.500. Publication Restrictions: Copyright is in the public domain. Preferred Citation: [Name], [Date]; Pardons, 1836- ; Commissions; Office of Secretary of State, Record Group 5; Missouri State Archives, Jefferson City. Acquisition Information: Agency transfer. PARDONS Processing Information: Processing done by various staff members and completed by Mary Kay Coker on October 30, 2007. Combined the series Pardon Papers and Restorations of Citizenship because the latter, especially in later years, contained a large proportion of pardons. The two series were split at 1910 but a later addition overlapped from 1892 to 1909 and these records were left in their respective boxes but listed chronologically in the finding aid.

    GENEALOGY COLLECTION C^e (git^ieUte OF 3n tl)c (Eountg of nortljumberlan^. BAPTISMS, 1696— 1812. MARRIAGES, 1684— 1812. BURIALS, 1682— 1812. TRANSCRIBED BY THE REV. A. C. C. VAUGHAN, M.A. RECTOR OF THE PARISH, INDEXED AND EDITED BY HERBERT MAXWELL WOOD, B.A. v,l SUNDERLAND: Privately Printed for the Durham and Northumberland Parish Register Society, By Hills & Co., 19 Fawcett Street. 1903. PRE FACE The extant Regfisters of this parish, beginning in October, 1682, and coming- down to 181 2, are comprised in three VoUimes. The first was in a very bad condition, but has been carefully re- Opaired and re-bound in limp cloth, though the edges of the leaves ^are much worn and torn, and probably some of the Births' sPvRegister are lost. It records the Marriages and Burials from that date until 1726, and these seem to have been regularly ^-^ entered by Aquila Forster and James Allgood, the Rectors ^r during that period, with their own hands, and are fairly well 1346GiO The Register of Births, the greater part of which were not christened in the church, commences in 1696, and was carried ^—^ on apparently with moderate regularity until 1709, although in year, are not given J that and the preceding the day and month ; ( but after that the entries are few and at long intervals, while those on page 142 are of a much later date. The first two leaves, both of the Births' and Burials' entries, are now placed in reversed order, but this may have been done in the re-binding.
