This book explores two major social problems facing Chinese society
today: increased strain in the lives of young people and heightened
rates of crime and delinquency, ultimately examining the links
between them. More broadly, it draws on Bronfenbrenner's ecological
systems theory and Agnew's general strain theory to examine the
factors and processes affecting young people, leading to life
strain and delinquency. It represents the first study of this kind
and involves the most systematic and comprehensive literature
review of studies on major social, economic, political and cultural
changes, as well as youth crime in contemporary China. Bao's
arguments are supported by empirical evidence including data
findings and over a decade's worth of observational research.
Shedding new light on the nature of youth crime in a rapidly
changing society, this methodical study will benefit policy makers
and researchers, helping them to develop tactics and methods to
reduce strain in the lives of young people, and thus effectively
prevent delinquency in China.
