Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even though youth crime rates have fallen since the mid-1990s, public fear and political rhetoric over the issue have heightened. The Columbine shootings and other sensational incidents add to the furor. Often overlooked are the underlying problems of child poverty, social disadvantage, and the pitfalls inherent to adolescent decisionmaking that contribute to youth crime. From a policy standpoint, adolescent offenders are caught in the crossfire between nurturance of youth and punishment of criminals, between rehabilitation and "get tough" pronouncements. In the midst of this emotional debate, the National Research Council's Panel on Juvenile Crime steps forward with an authoritative review of the best available data and analysis. Juvenile Crime, Juvenile Justice presents recommendations for addressing the many aspects of America's youth crime problem. This timely release discusses patterns and trends in crimes by children and adolescentsâ€"trends revealed by arrest data, victim reports, and other sources; youth crime within general crime; and race and sex disparities. The book explores desistanceâ€"the probability that delinquency or criminal activities decrease with ageâ€"and evaluates different approaches to predicting future crime rates. Why do young people turn to delinquency? Juvenile Crime, Juvenile Justice presents what we know and what we urgently need to find out about contributing factors, ranging from prenatal care, differences in temperament, and family influences to the role of peer relationships, the impact of the school policies toward delinquency, and the broader influences of the neighborhood and community. Equally important, this book examines a range of solutions: Prevention and intervention efforts directed to individuals, peer groups, and families, as well as day care-, school- and community-based initiatives. Intervention within the juvenile justice system. Role of the police. Processing and detention of youth offenders. Transferring youths to the adult judicial system. Residential placement of juveniles. The book includes background on the American juvenile court system, useful comparisons with the juvenile justice systems of other nations, and other important information for assessing this problem.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adolescence is a distinct, yet transient, period of development between childhood and adulthood characterized by increased experimentation and risk-taking, a tendency to discount long-term consequences, and heightened sensitivity to peers and other social influences. A key function of adolescence is developing an integrated sense of self, including individualization, separation from parents, and personal identity. Experimentation and novelty-seeking behavior, such as alcohol and drug use, unsafe sex, and reckless driving, are thought to serve a number of adaptive functions despite their risks. Research indicates that for most youth, the period of risky experimentation does not extend beyond adolescence, ceasing as identity becomes settled with maturity. Much adolescent involvement in criminal activity is part of the normal developmental process of identity formation and most adolescents will mature out of these tendencies. Evidence of significant changes in brain structure and function during adolescence strongly suggests that these cognitive tendencies characteristic of adolescents are associated with biological immaturity of the brain and with an imbalance among developing brain systems. This imbalance model implies dual systems: one involved in cognitive and behavioral control and one involved in socio-emotional processes. Accordingly adolescents lack mature capacity for self-regulations because the brain system that influences pleasure-seeking and emotional reactivity develops more rapidly than the brain system that supports self-control. This knowledge of adolescent development has underscored important differences between adults and adolescents with direct bearing on the design and operation of the justice system, raising doubts about the core assumptions driving the criminalization of juvenile justice policy in the late decades of the 20th century. It was in this context that the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) asked the National Research Council to convene a committee to conduct a study of juvenile justice reform. The goal of Reforming Juvenile Justice: A Developmental Approach was to review recent advances in behavioral and neuroscience research and draw out the implications of this knowledge for juvenile justice reform, to assess the new generation of reform activities occurring in the United States, and to assess the performance of OJJDP in carrying out its statutory mission as well as its potential role in supporting scientifically based reform efforts.

Download or read book Intervention Strategies for Chronic Juvenile Offenders written by Peter W. Greenwood and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1986-11-18 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The papers in this collection were commissioned as part of a Rand research study to determine whether rehabilitation is really dead, or possibly just hibernating. A companion book, "One More Chance : The Pursuit of Promising Intervention Strategies for Chronic Juvenile Offenders" (Greenwood & Zimring, 1985) presents the principle findings of the study, which old out promise that the quality of rehabilitation programs can and should be improved. These papers describe the analysis used to arrive at that conclusion. Their common thread is an attempt to explain why interest in, and knowledge about, rehabilitation of serious juvenile offenders is in its current state of confusion and disarray.

This book was released on 2015-01-20 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject Law - Criminal process, Criminology, Law Enforcement, grade: A-, University at Albany, State University of New York, language: English, abstract: The HBO series The Wire and Fox Butterfield's book All God's Children are two helpful media sources that provide fictional and non-fictional examples of juvenile delinquency. When discussing the many theories that are used in explaining juvenile delinquency, it is useful to be able to look to both the series and the book for realistic examples of delinquent juveniles and their environments. Visual representation of delinquent environments as provided by The Wire, along with first-hand accounts of delinquent youths as provided by All God's Children yields a better overall understanding of juvenile delinquency. The examples provided can then be taken and used as samples to which juvenile delinquency theories can be applied. The fact that both the book and series capture numerous perspectives helps to expose some of the issues that hinder the success of the juvenile system. The amount of detail provided by both the book and series allows students to look back on the juveniles exemplified and use them as cases to apply all they have learned on how to prevent and control juvenile delinquency.
