Today juvenile delinquents are viewed and treated much like adult
criminals. The goal of rehabilitating and reforming youthful
offenders--once the primary function of juvenile courts--has
largely been abandoned in the past decade in favor of a
punishment-orientation that includes extended periods of
incarceration. This study, written by a distinguished group of
criminologists, legal experts, and social scientists, attempts to
determine the reasons for the decline in interest in
rehabilitation, what can be done to revive it, and whether
rehabilitation is ultimately a practical approach to the problem of
juvenile crime.
