Policing youth probes beneath the media sensationalism surrounding
youth crime in order to evaluate the workings of juvenile justice
and the relationship between young people and practitioners in a
key era of social change. The work of state representatives - the
police, magistrates and probation officers - is mapped alongside
discipline within families, neighbourhoods, schools and churches as
well as the growing commercial sector of retail and leisure. Youth
culture is considered alongside the social and moral regulation of
everyday life. The book offers an important comparison of England
and Scotland, uses a wide variety of sources (including criminal
statistics, media, film and autobiography), and combines
quantitative research methods with textual and spatial analysis.
Individual chapters focus on police officers, the court system,
violence, home and community, sexuality, commercial leisure and
reform. This significant study will appeal to scholars and students
of history, criminology, cultural studies, social policy and
sociology. -- .
