This book examines the implications of the professional and
judicial discourses on migrant youth in the Belgian youth justice
system. Drawing on a detailed study of 55 court case files and
in-depth interviews with over forty youth justice professionals,
the book explores the problematisations of migrant Roma and
Caucasian young people in the youth justice system to argue that
they result in 'discursive harms'. It discusses the assumptions and
the effects of explanations of deviant behaviour, ambiguities in
representations of young people's agency and responsibility,
differing assumptions about the moral potential of Roma and
Caucasian families, and the reframing of assessments in
school-based reports as signals of delinquency. The book reflects
on how to address the 'discursive harms' identified and calls for a
review of protection practices and ideals from a fundamental rights
perspective. This book contributes to a topic that will have
increasing significance for youth justice practice in Belgium as
well as the rest of Europe.
