In his engaging narrative history of the rise and workings of
America's first juvenile court, David S. Tanenhaus explores the
fundamental and enduring question of how the law should treat the
young. Sifting through almost 3,000 previously unexamined Chicago
case files from the early twentieth century, Tanenhaus reveals how
children's advocates slowly built up a separate system for
juveniles, all the while fighting political and legal battles to
legitimate this controversial institution. Harkening back to a more
hopeful and nuanced age, Juvenile Justice in the Making provides a
valuable historical framework for thinking about youth
policy.
