Description

Juvenile Delinquency: Causes and Control (6th Edition)

Now in its sixth edition, Juvenile Delinquency: Causes and Control offers a clear and concise overview of the latest theories and research regarding the causes and control of delinquency. Written by Robert Agnew, this comprehensive text is organized around three pivotal questions that define the field: What is the nature and extent of delinquency? What are the causes of delinquency? and What strategies should we employ to control delinquency?

These thought-provoking inquiries draw readers into the text, challenging them to utilize major sociological and criminological theories to explain the basic facts about juvenile behavior. The book provides a rigorous framework for understanding research on the origins of delinquent acts and empowers readers to critically develop and evaluate programs and policies intended for its control. This edition remains a vital resource for those seeking to understand the complex intersection of social factors, individual behavior, and the justice system.
