Authoritative, current, and easy to use, this book is an
outstanding resource for readers looking to gain an accurate and
thorough understanding of American juvenile justice. Juvenile
delinquency has been of interest to the general public and academic
scholars for many decades—and it has been an ongoing societal
problem for the same amount of time. Delinquency covers a range of
behaviors from minor offenses, such as trespassing or vandalism, to
the more serious crimes often associated with gangs that include
murder. Juvenile Justice: A Reference Handbook puts juvenile
justice under the microscope, surveying its long history and key
issues, exploring the myriad of problems and controversies tied to
the juvenile justice system, and explains how policymakers and
legal professionals have tried to solve these vexing issues. The
book first presents historical and contemporary discussions of
juvenile justice, especially in the United States. The next
chapters address problems, controversies, and possible solutions
for juvenile justice; present insightful, diverse perspectives from
leading experts; and profile important figures in the juvenile
justice system and the field of crime and delinquency. The book
also contains data and primary documents that show who gets
processed through the juvenile justice system and for what kinds of
criminal acts.
