| adam_text | What gives crime fiction its distinctive shape and form? What makes
it such a compelling vehicle of social and political critique? Unwilling
Executioner argues that the answer lies in the emerging genre s complex
and intimate relationship with the bureaucratic state and modern
capitalism, and the contradictions that ensue once the state assumes
control of the criminal justice system. This study offers a dramatic new
interpretation of the genre s emergence and evolution over a three
hundred year period and as a genuinely transnational phenomenon.
From its roots in the tales of criminality circulated widely in Paris and
London in the early eighteenth century, this book examines the
extraordinary richness, diversity, and complexity of the genre s
subsequent thematizations of crime and policing—moving from France
and Britain and from continental Europe and the United States to other
parts of the globe. In doing so it offers new ways of reading established
crime novelists like Gaboriau, Doyle, Hammett, and Simenon, beyond
their national contexts and an impulse to characterize their work as
either straightforwardly radical or conservative . It also argues for
the centrality of writers like Defoe, Gay, Godwin, Vidocq, Morrison,
and more recently Manchette, Himes, and Sjowall and Wahloo to a
project where crime and policing are rooted, and shown to be rooted,
in the social and economic conditions of their time. These are all deeply
political writers even if their novels exhibit no interest in directly
promoting political causes or parties. The result is an agile, layered,
and far-reaching account of the crime story s ambivalent relationship
to the justice system and its move to complicate our understanding
of what crime is and how society is policed and for whose benefit.
