This book explores how young people perceive the severity of crime
and delinquency. It particularly addresses whom or what they
consider to be the victims of crime and delinquency, how they
analyze and assess appropriate responses by the criminal justice
system, as well as their place within it. The book proposes tools
for developing a more elaborate and robust understanding of what
constitutes crime, identifying those affected by it, and what is
deemed adequate or appropriate punishment. In so doing, it offers
thick description of young peoples' conceptions of and experiences
with crime, delinquency, justice and law, and uses this description
to interrogate the role of the state in influencing - indeed,
shaping - these perceptions.
