| Zusammenfassung: | No Duty to Retreat takes as its starting-point the increased popularity in American society of the old English common-law concept that a person under physical attack has the right to stand his ground, defend himself, and even kill his assailant in self-defence in certain circumstances. This doctrine came to public awareness recently when Berhard Goetz took the law into his own hands when assaulted by four youths in a New York City subway train. There is a chapter on the American as gunfighter, another on a famous vigilante case in California in the 1870s, when farmers retaliated against the Southern Pacific Railroad trying to move them off their lands, and a long chapter discussing 'crime, law, and society in America since 1930', in which Brown shows that the crime surge since the 1950s has occurred with the emergence of the Post-Industrial Society, which has left many people alienated and looking for quick solutions. |

| spelling | Brown, Richard Maxwell. No duty to retreat : violence and values in American history and society / Richard Maxwell Brown. New York : Oxford University Press, 1991. 1 online resource (268 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Includes bibliographical references (pages 177-251) and index. No duty to retreat in law and the American mind -- The gunfighter : the reality behind the myth -- California conflict and the American dream -- The persistence of no duty to retreat : crime, law, and society in America from the 1850s to the present -- Conclusion: No duty to retreat in retrospect and prospect. Print version record. No Duty to Retreat takes as its starting-point the increased popularity in American society of the old English common-law concept that a person under physical attack has the right to stand his ground, defend himself, and even kill his assailant in self-defence in certain circumstances. This doctrine came to public awareness recently when Berhard Goetz took the law into his own hands when assaulted by four youths in a New York City subway train. There is a chapter on the American as gunfighter, another on a famous vigilante case in California in the 1870s, when farmers retaliated against the Southern Pacific Railroad trying to move them off their lands, and a long chapter discussing 'crime, law, and society in America since 1930', in which Brown shows that the crime surge since the 1950s has occurred with the emergence of the Post-Industrial Society, which has left many people alienated and looking for quick solutions.
