Who is responsible for juvenile delinquency? Mark D. Jacobs uses
ethnographic, statistical, and literary methods to uncover the many
levels of disorganization in American juvenile justice. By
analyzing the continuities betwen normal casework and exceptional
cases, he reveals that probation officers must commonly contrive
informal measures to circumvent a system which routinely obstructs
the delivery of services to their clients. Jacobs defines the
concept of the "no-fault society" to describe the larger context of
societal disorder and interpersonal manipulation that the juvenile
justice system at once reflects and exacerbates.
