How is modern law for burglary different from the older common law?

Modern law for burglary has evolved from the older common law by broadening the definition and scope of the offense. Traditionally, common law defined burglary as the unlawful entry into a dwelling at night with the intent to commit a felony inside. Today, many jurisdictions recognize burglary as occurring at any time and can include unauthorized entry into buildings or structures with the intent to commit various crimes, not just felonies. Additionally, modern statutes often do not require the act of entering to be accomplished through force, allowing for a wider range of scenariOS to be classified as burglary.
