This comprehensive reference work presents an in-depth analysis of
juvenile justice systems across the world. The second edition of
this Handbook has been updated with 13 new chapters, now covering a
total of 34 countries, across North and South America, Europe,
Asia, Africa, and the Middle East from an international and
comparative perspective. The International Handbook of Juvenile
Justice is the result of research conducted by a group of
outstanding scholars working in the field of juvenile justice. It
reflects a collective concern about trends in juvenile justice over
the past two decades, trends that have begun to blur the difference
between criminal and juvenile justice. Also new to the second
edition, each chapter is formatted to increase the comparative
aspect of the book, highlighting: * The legal status of juveniles *
Age of majority * The country's stance toward the UN Committee on
the Rights of the Child * Trends in juvenile crime over the period
2004-2014 * Causes of juvenile crime * Policing and juveniles *
Courts and juveniles * Custodial rules for juveniles (detention,
prison, mixing juveniles with adults) * Alternative sanctions for
juveniles: home confinement, restorative justice, restitution, etc.
* Differences in treatment of boys and girls This seminal work
highlights similarities and differences between the various
systems, and will be an important reference for researchers in
criminology and criminal justice, particularly interested in
juvenile delinquency and youth crime, as well as related
disciplines like sociology, social work, and public policy.
