International Handbook of Juvenile Justice
Author: Scott H DeckerPublisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319450905
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 548
Book Description
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.

Book Description
Se siente un profundo temor cuando uno es llamado a comparecer ante un juez. Aunque solo sea por una multa de tr&á nsito. Especialmente si uno comparece sin un abogado. &¿ Cu&á l ser&á la multa? &¿ Habr&á una defensa? &¿ Me declaro culpable, o pido un juicio? Pero cuando comparecemos ante el tribunal de Dios, todo temor se disipa: &¡ se retiran todos los cargos! Pero &¿ es verdad realmente? Hemos hecho tantas cosas que estamos convencidos de que no tenemos perd&ó n. Pensamos: « Tal como no se puede confiar plenamente en el sistema judicial, tampoco se puede confiar plenamente en el perd&ó n de nuestros pecados» . Pero el martillo del juez interrumpe nuestros titubeos: « Por causa de Cristo, se retiran todos los cargos, no hay nada pendiente. &¡ El defendido queda perdonado! &¡ Para siempre!» .El segundo tomo de &¡ Se retiran todos los cargos! contin&ú a el viaje desde la corte terrenal hasta el trono de la gracia de Dios, en tanto Haroldo Camacho nos muestra que cada pecador recibe un veredicto de inocente, &¡ sin importar cu&á n culpable sea!
Youth Violence

Book Description
This bibliography comprises a selection of Library of Congress catalog records for some 1,500 books, periodicals, and websites related to youth violence. Anyone wanting such a bibliography could probably compile it from the Library of Congress web site, and the deficiencies in conception and design of this "product" defy understanding. A brief preface sounds an alarm--"...no one should be surprised that youth violence lurks behind every school house door"--but sets forth no criteria for selection of citations (no indication of time frame, purpose, or audience). Entries are arranged alphabetically by title within chapters on school violence, guns and youth, gangs, campus violence, dating and violence, and periodicals and Web sites. Unforgivably primitive alphabetic sorting puts all titles beginning with The together (the same with other articles); and, in addition, those titles are indexed together! Though the title indicates the presence of "abstracts," there are none except the summaries supplied by Library of Congress for juvenile titles (of which there are many). Cross-referencing and indexing (except by title) are absent. The compiler's credentials, motivation, and orientation are not cited. Furthermore, with better design, the contents would have consumed half the number of pages, and a few typeface variations would have eased scanning.

Author: The Age of Mass Child Removal in Spain
Author: Peter AndersonPublisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0192658913
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 401
Book Description
The Age of Mass Child Removal in Spain analyses the ideas and practices that underpinned the age of mass child removal. This era emerged from growing criticisms across the world of 'dangerous' parents and the developing belief in the nineteenth century that the state could provide superior guardianship to 'unfit' parents. In the late nineteenth century, the juvenile-court movement led the way in forging a new and more efficient system of child removal that severely curtailed the previously highly protected sovereignty of guardians deemed dangerous. This transnational movement rapidly established courts across the world and used them to train the personnel and create the systems that frequently lay behind mass child removal. Spaniards formed a significant part of this transnational movement and the country's juvenile courts became involved in the three main areas of removal that characterize the age: the taking of children from poor families, from families displaced by war, and from political opponents. The study of Spanish case files reveals much about how the removal process worked in practice across time and across democratic regimes and dictatorships. These cases also afford an insight into the rich array of child-removal practices that lay between the poles of coercion and victimhood. Accordingly, the study offers a history of some of most marginalized parents and children and recaptures their voice, agency, and experience. Peter Anderson also analyses the removal of tens of thousands of children from General Franco's political opponents, sometimes referred to as the lost children of Francoism, through the history and practice of the juvenile courts.
