This book describes the concept of child victimization in all its
facets. Millions of young people throughout the world face
violence, sexual, physical, and emotional abuse and exploitation on
a daily basis. The worldwide victimization of young people can be
prevented, or, at least, its incidence can be greatly reduced, if
purposeful action is taken to do so. This volume researches and
documents some of the ways in which young people throughout the
world are victimized, and suggests strategies for preventing
various forms of child vistimization. Eight distinct forms of
victimization are identified and analyzed in detail. Included are
discussions on child prostitution and pornography, economic
exploitation through child labor and trafficking, physical and
other abuse inflicted on young people in schools and other
institutions, the use of children as armed combatants, and the
denial of the basic needs and rights of children to such things as
home and to education. In each chapter the authors discuss the
nature of the victimization, its global dimensions and prevalence,
and the measures governments and/or others are taking, or failing
to take, to combat the harm based on the concept that youth
victimization is a form of government crime.
