Imagine we had the Anglo-Saxon system of tithings,
hue and cry etc today. Discuss how it would work in dealing with each of the following crimes: Damage to shops in the town centre by vandals Theft of a car from outside a house in a busy street Burglary of a video from a house Drug smuggling Which kinds of crime would this system deal with effectively? Which crimes would it not be able to handle? Is it a better system than the modern police? Do you agree with the writer of Source 3 about the Anglo-Saxon system? |
