This book-containing contributions from scholars who are well-known
for their research on gangs, and selected as experts on the
assigned topics-examines youth gangs from a
developmental/life-course perspective, exploring a myriad of issues
related to gang membership, its causes, its consequences, and
various intervention efforts to both prevent gang membership and
reduce the problematic impact of gangs. Beginning with research
exploring the intergenerational continuity in gang membership and
examining the causal processes leading to gang membership, the
structure of the book reflects the developmental sequence of gang
membership. The consequences of gang membership for youth are
examined, as are intervention strategies. The book also presents
the first conceptual framework on female gang involvement, taking
into account the differences in the paths and roles that women and
girls may take into the gang. The book concludes by exploring how
gang membership affects job possibilities for young adults. This
book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of
Crime and Justice.
