Juvenile Correctional Reform Two Decades of Policy and Procedural Change

Edmund F. McGarrell

4.9/5 (33750 ratings)

Description:This book addresses the divergent reform agendas that have shaped American juvenile justice systems during the last two decades. Testing and extending the theory of social reform developed by Ohlin, et al. in their study of Massachusetts juvenile justice reform, McGarrell investigates the process of change in New York State s juvenile corrections system because this state was a forerunner of both liberal and conservative national reform trends. He asks: What juvenile justice policies have changed? Who has changed them, and why? What has been the effect on juvenile corrections, and ultimately, on youth? Juvenile Correctional Reform suggests that many factors as broad as cultural shifts in prevailing political ideology, and as narrow as the individual initiative of an agency head have shaped policy and procedure at specific times. It also provides an important case study of an organization in relation to its environment during a period of unprecedented and often contradictory demands for change in juvenile corrections."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
