"Historicus Maarten Müller geeft in dit boek weer hoe de criminaliteit in Haarlem zich ontwikkelde in de periode 1673-1811, en hoe de stedelijke overheid daartegen optrad. Het is een vervolg op een eerdere studie waarin misdaad en straf in Haarlem in het tijdvak 1245-1615 systematisch in kaart zijn gebracht. De gestage ontwikkeling in de richting van beschaafd stedelijk gedrag - minder geweld, minder misdaad - is volgens de auteur al sinds de late middeleeuwen te bespeuren. Met behulp van culturele antropologie en evolutionaire psychologie maakt Müller aannemelijk dat in steden als Haarlem een bijzondere - maar niet unieke - groepsdynamiek actief was als beschavingsfactor."--Publisher information
