Abstract or description

Policing Youth is a fascinating, accessible but earnest study of the workings of the juvenile justice system during the period of extensive societal changes following the Second World War. Historians and criminologists have regularly and emphatically been able to demonstrate, through historical research concentrated in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, that twenty-first century concerns about levels of anti-social behaviour, gang-membership and weaponisation amongst young people in the United Kingdom, and the behaviours that trigger them, are not new.
