À propos de cet audio
In 1842, the Webster-Ashburton Commission, which also led to the drawing of the international boundary, laid the first legal framework for a treaty of extradition between Canada and the United States. Despite such treaties, borderline crime continued to challenge the legal order and therefore both British and American sovereignty. Extradition treaties have always been tied to issues of territorial sovereignty, but there are other informal ways of policing the border. Bradley Miller’s book explores the challenge of the border. Borderline Crime: Fugitive Criminals and the Challenge of the Border 1819-1914, was published in 2016 by the Osgoode Society for Canadian Legal history. The book is a remarkable and important study of the history of the challenge of the border and shows how governments and people struggled to deal with crime and criminals which crossed the Canadian-American border.
