The Children's Court is one of society's most important social
institutions. At the same time, it is steeped in controversy. This
is in large measure due to the persistence and complexity of the
problems with which it deals, namely, juvenile crime and child
abuse and neglect. Despite the importance of the Children's Court
as a means of holding young people accountable for their
anti-social behaviour and parents for the care of their children,
it has not been the subject of close study. Certainly it has not
been previously studied nationally. This book, an edited
collection, is based on the findings of study that spanned the six
States and two Territories of Australia. The study sought to
examine the current challenges faced by the Children's Court and to
identify desirable and feasible directions for reform in each State
and Territory. A further unique feature of this study is that it
canvassed the views of judges and magistrates who preside over this
court.
