About the Book

This book situates the field of Canadian youth justice historically, cross-culturally, theoretically, and politically through a collection of articles by Canadian, British, Australian, and American authors. The two major themes in this collection are the tension between juvenile justice that is also justice for youth. The articles provide exposure to a variety of perspectives by representing selections from both academic and popular writers. Topics addressed include child saving, moral panics, youth culture, and girl violence, as well as juvenile crime prevention and the ongoing reform of the youth justice system.
