INTRODUCTION Prior articles have asserted that English criminal law is very fragmented and that a considerable amount of the older law - especially the common law - is badly out of date.1 The purpose of this article is to consider the crime of public nuisance (also called common nuisance), a common law crime. The word 'nuisance' derives from the old french 'nuisance' or 'nusance' 2 and the latin, nocumentum.3 The basic meaning of the word is that of 'annoyance';4 In medieval English, the word 'common' comes from the word 'commune' which, itself, derives from the latin 'communa' - being a commonality, a group of people, a corporation.5 In 1191, the City of London (the 'City') became a commune. Thereafter, it is usual to find references with that term - such as common carrier, common highway, common council, common scold, common prostitute etc;6 The reference to 'common' designated things available to the general public as opposed to the individual. For example, the common carrier, common farrier and common innkeeper exercised a public employment and not just a private one.

  • ENGLAND, 1831-1875 Presented to the Graduate Council of the North
    N, 1'%,6ABI THE PUBLIC HEALTH MOVEMENT IN VICTORIAN ENGLAND, 1831-1875 THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS By Renee Anderson Hopkins, B.A. Denton, Texas December, 1985 .0-"/,C7 Hopkins, Renee A., The Public Health Movement in Victorian England, 1831-1875. Master of Arts (History), December, 1985, 73 pp., bibliography, 60 titles. In early Victorian England, a coalition of men of Gov- ernment and the local community established a centralized and uniform policy toward public health. The long and ar- duous campaign (1831-1875) for public health impelled the need to solve the serious social, political and economic problems spawned by the Industrial Revolution. This study concludes that Britain's leaders came to believe that Government indeed had an obligation to redress grievances created by injustice, a decision which meant the rejection of laissez-faire. Through legislation based on long study, Parliament consolidated the work of sanitation authorities, trained medical officers, and essential environmental improvements. The public sanitation program soon decreased the mortality rate by breaking the frequent cycle of cholera, typhoid, typhus, and dysentery plagues, all this notwithstanding that no doctor of that age knew that bacteria and viruses caused disease. -MNW.. PREFACE The Public Health Movement of Victorian England stemmed from the social, economic and political problems created by industrialization. Unprecedented social change focused attention on such issues as poverty, public health, working conditions, and education. By mid-century, govern- ment involvement in social affairs had begotten a plethora of recommendations on how to rid England of these social evils, especially the improvement of public sanitation.

  • Modernising English Criminal Legislation 1267-1970

E-mail: gsmcbain@aol.com Received: April 2, 2017 Accepted: April 19, 2017 Online Published: April 27, 2017 doi:10.5539/par.v6n1p53 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/par.v6n1p53 1. INTRODUCTION English criminal - and criminal procedure - legislation is in a parlous state. Presently, there are some 286 Acts covering criminal law and criminal procedure with the former comprising c.155 Acts. Therefore, it is unsurprising that Judge CJ, in his book, The Safest Shield (2015), described the current volume of criminal legislation as 'suffocating'. 1 If one considers all legislation extant from 1267 - 1925 (see Appendix A) a considerable quantity comprises criminal law and criminal procedure - most of which is (likely) obsolete.2 Given this, the purpose of this article is to look at criminal legislation in the period 1267-1970 as well as criminal procedure legislation in the period 1267-1925. Its conclusions are simple: (a) the Law Commission should review all criminal legislation pre-1890 as well as a few pieces thereafter (see Appendix B). It should also review (likely) obsolete common law crimes (see Appendix C); (b) at the same time, the Ministry of Justice (or Home Office) should consolidate all criminal legislation post-1890 into 4 Crime Acts.3 These should deal with: (a) Sex crimes; (b) Public order crimes; (c) Crimes against the person; (d) Property and financial crimes (see 7).

  • Cholera, Quarantine and the English Preventive System, 1850-1895
    Medical Historv, 1993, 37: 250-269. CHOLERA, QUARANTINE AND THE ENGLISH PREVENTIVE SYSTEM, 1850-1895 by ANNE HARDY * Cholera is popularly remembered as the disease which made the nineteenth century its own, appearing from obscurity to devastate Europe repeatedly in the years between 1830 and the 1920s. Six pandemics spread fear and alarm, terrible illness and horrible death, across the Continent before 1900,1 distorting the true demographic significance of the disease and deflecting both contemporary and historical attention from the indigenous "diseases of society".2 Epidemic cholera had its origins in India; for Europe it was only an invader, as plague had been originally. In its status as invader, and in the magnitude of its geographical range, lay its impact and its influence on nineteenth-century society. More than thirty years ago, Asa Briggs drew attention to the international significance of cholera, and stressed the need for comparative examination of responses to cholera in different countries and in different epidemics.3 Although the disease has since attracted much historical attention, this has been largely concentrated on individual epidemics (notably that of 1830-32), and on contemporary debates about the causes of the disease.4 It is only recently that studies which recognize and stimulate consideration of the wider European cholera experience of the period 1830-1900 have begun to appear, and the later history of the disease in Europe remains largely unexplored.5 Both the pattern of local responses to the later outbreaks, and the processes involved in cholera's gradual withdrawal from the Continent, merit investigation, as does the wider context of the development of * Anne Hardy, MA, D.Phil., Wellcome Institute for the History ofMedicine, 183 Euston Road, London NW I 2BE.

INDIANA LAW JOURNAL Vol. VI MAY, 1931 No. 8 STATUTORY RULES AND ORDERS ERNEST R. BALTZELL* The rules and orders of federal and state administrative offi- cials made in the exercise of authority delegated by Congress and state legislatures have, in recent years, become an important part of our law. As the functions of government have increased new administrative departments,, commissions, boards and bu- reaus have been created. New and important powers have been conferred upon administrative officials. The exercise of these powers has resulted in a body of rules, regulations and orders comparable in volume and in importance, in many instances, to the enactments of Congress and state legislatures. This body of law has been called "administrative legislation"' and the power exercised in making it has been frequently referred to as "quasi-legislative." In Great Britain a similar body of law has developed and is collected in an official publication called "Statutory Rules and Orders." 2 This body of law in Great Britain has been described as "Delegated Legislation."' 3 The Riglements d'Administration Publique represent in France similar rules and orders.

  • Political Institutions and Private Property

POLITICAL INSTITUTIONS AND PRIVATE PROPERTY Daniel H. Cole1 INTRODUCTION Is constitutional judicial review necessary to protect private property rights? Nearly all American jurists, since James Madison, have thought the answer to this question both obvious and incontestible: in the absence of judicial review, federal and state governments would trample private property rights into dust. Theoretical and historical support for this presumption are thin. In fact, positive political-economic theory predicts that political institutions will substantially protect private property rights. Historical evidence from the United Kingdom and several of the United States strongly supports that theory, and casts doubt on the extreme form of distrust of democratic regulations represented, for example, by the judicial opinions of Justice Scalia and the scholarly writings of Richard Epstein. Theory and evidence suggest that constitutional judicial review has less marginal utility than most legal scholars presume. 1 R.
