About this book
Built on the philosophy of rehabilitation and treatment rather than retribution and punishment, the key goal of the juvenile justice system is to deter delinquency before adolescents enter the harsher adult system. Juvenile Justice: An Active-Learning Approach, Second Edition provides an in-depth exploration of the United States juvenile justice system and the response from police, courts, and correctional institutions to crimes committed by juveniles, as well as the strategies used to deter these crimes. Using an active-learning approach, renowned authors Frank Schmalleger and Catherine D. Marcum provide students with a foundational understanding of the juvenile justice system, while also giving them the opportunity to put what they learn into action, thus increasing their ability to comprehend and retain information and to carefully analyze the juvenile justice system.
