What is Juvenile Justice : International Perspectives, Models, and Trends about?

Juvenile justice has been and remains a topical issue at national and international levels. There are various standards and guidelines for administration, but six major models characterize juvenile justice systems worldwide: participatory, welfare, corporatism, modified justice, justice, and crime control__.__ **Juvenile Justice: International Perspectives, Models, and Trends** presents contributions by authors from different countries in all five continents employing these six models. The book begins with a comprehensive overview of the topic and the various international standards and guidelines designed to inform juvenile justice practices. This introduction is followed by chapters on individual countries covered independently by resident experts, allowing readers to appreciate a range of comparisons and to critically reflect on the relative merits of the different models. Topics presented in each chapter include: * The country’s history of juvenile justice * The nature and status of delinquency * Current legislation on juvenile justice * How well the legislation complies with the Standard Minimum Rules of the Administration of Juvenile Justice as defined by the United Nations *
