School Crime and Juvenile Justice, Second Edition, examines the
nature, extent, and causes of school crime and disruptive behavior,
offering a comprehensive overview of this significant and growing
problem. Drawing on numerous sources and on studies conducted over
the past ten years, the second edition reviews the most up-to-date
theories on the relationship between school crime and crime in the
community, the role of parents and peers, and schools' organization
and policies. Lawrence discusses current research findings, laws
and school policies, prevention strategies, and alternative schools
and special education programs for at-risk and delinquent students.
Extensively revised and updated, this edition includes two new
chapters: Chapter 6 examines the school environment and how school
size, structure, and related factors affect school crime and
safety, while Chapter 7 discusses recent research on identifying
which students may be at risk of committing school violence.
Chapters on the causes of juvenile delinquency and the role of
police, courts, and corrections in the administration of juvenile
justice have been expanded and updated to reflect the latest
available research and resources.
Ideal for criminal justice courses and an indispensable resource
for scholars and school administrators, School Crime and Juvenile
Justice, Second Edition, takes a closer look at the problem of
crime and violence in and around schools. It offers a clear
understanding of how people can work together to create safer
schools and how educators and juvenile justice officials can
develop cooperative delinquency prevention programs.
