Readings in Juvenile Justice Administration analyzes the judicial, legal, and correctional agencies that respond to delinquent offenders. The book begins with a discussion of the origins of the juvenile court system. It then examines juvenile justice administration, the quality of procedural justice in juvenile courts, the boundaries between delinquents and criminals, and the sentencing of delinquents in juvenile courts. The book concludes by exploring what reasons there are to maintain a separate juvenile justice system for young offenders.
