    Book SynopsisThis fully revised and expanded second edition focusses on high-risk youth - whose struggles include neglect and abuse, alcohol and drug abuse, the risk of being exploited, mental health issues, and the inability to self-regulate and trust - a population of youth that government child welfare services and community agencies struggle to serve adequately. The focus has traditionally been on punishment-consequence interventions and demanding compliance, but experience and research shows that they can be better served through relationship-based practice incorporating harm reduction principles, resiliency and strength-based approaches, community collaboration, and an understanding that these youth typically come from experiences of early trauma impacting their brain development and their ability to form attachments. With new material on attachment, trauma and brain development, the perfect storm youth, how to end relationships, shame, and societal divisions, this book proviTable of Contents1.Introduction: The Get Connected Practice Framework. 2.Where Do High Risk Youth Come From?

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book will expand students' knowledge and understanding of the evolution of juvenile justice in the last 50 years. Designed to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the landmark case In re Gault, which the U.S. Supreme Court decided in 1967, the authors provide a brief history of juvenile justice, then frame the developments and transformations that have occurred in the intervening years. Topics covered include an overview of the dramatic changes to the field following the spike in youth violence in the 1990s, the superpredator myth, zero-tolerance policies, and sanctions for juvenile offendersparticularly the 2005 abolition of the death penalty and subsequent decision on life without parole. The book also covers child and youth victimization and trauma, and recent prevention and treatment initiatives.Designed for upper-level undergraduates, this text reflects on the evolving U.S. juvenile justice system while anticipating future challenges andTrade ReviewAlida Merlo and Peter Benekos provide a compelling account of how science, ideology, and politics have shaped the evolution of juvenile justice policy. In a comprehensive and compassionate way, they illuminate the mistakes of the past as a way of showing progressive avenues for future reform. Scholarly but accessible, Reaffirming Juvenile Justice is both an essential reference book and ideal for courses focusing on wayward youths. --Francis T. Cullen, Distinguished Research Professor Emeritus, University of CincinnatiFifty years after the landmark Gault decision revolutionized juvenile justice, Merlo and Benekos undertake a sweeping and comprehensive review of that system. Reaffirming Juvenile Justice powerfully documents legal decisions and key policy debates in the decades that followed. A must-read for those concerned about how the United States treats its most vulnerable youth. --Meda Chesney-Lind, Professor of Women's Studies, University of Hawaii at ManoaMuch has happened since the Gault case was decided some fifty years ago—so much so that it can be hard to keep up with the relevant research and case law spanning multiple disciplines. Fortunately, Merlo and Benekos have done us a huge favor. This book situates the recent developments amidst a backdrop of juvenile justice issues, summarizing key developments, and anticipating the future. From scholars whose careers have been focused on key policy questions, I have no doubt you will learn as much as I have in reading this book. --Alex R. Piquero, Ashbel Smith Professor, The University of Texas at DallasReaffirming Juvenile Justice: From Gault to Montgomery is a well written and informative textbook. The authors provide an in-depth and comprehensive coverage of a range of issues including constitutionality, culpability, and system responses facing the juvenile justice system as well as challenges such as legal defense, disproportionate minority youth contact/involvement with the system, and conditions and the length of confinement. Couched within a historical context, the discussion of the role(s) that political ideology and the media play into the construction of the imagery of youth further sheds light on the complexities involved in the responses to and treatment of juvenile delinquents. A must read! --Michael Leiber, Professor in Criminology, University of South FloridaTable of ContentsPrefaceAcknowledgmentsChapter 1 Developing the Juvenile Justice SystemChapter 2 Demonization of Youth and Politicization of Juvenile JusticeChapter 3 Court Decisions: From In re Gault to Montgomery v.

It begins by tracing the historical origins of the legal concept of juvenile delinquency and the institutional responses that developed, and analyzes the problem of delinquency, including its patterns, correlates, and causes.

Trade Review "This text offers a comprehensive and detailed overview of the juvenile justice system, incorporating the most relevant and current research. The information is presented in a format that is easily accessible to students. It is a must have for any juvenile justice course." - Riane Bolin, Assistant Professor of Criminal Justice, Radford University "Detailed, thorough, and current, Burfeind, Bartusch, and Hollist lead readers through the study of juvenile justice by offering an impressive array of up-to-date research, case studies, and evidenced based practices. Juvenile Justice: An Introduction to Process, Practice, and Research is comprehensive yet not overwhelming. The material is remarkably useful for anyone interested in learning about the system and/or working in the field of juvenile justice.
