Young Offenders And Youth Justice A Century After the Fact, 4th Edition by Sandra J. Bell – Test Bank

The Fourth Edition of the book, “Young Offenders and Juvenile Justice,” analyzes societal perceptions of youth and youth misconduct a hundred years later. It delves into the societal perspectives on young individuals and their actions, and how these viewpoints shape public debates, academic theories, governmental policies, and institutional reactions to rebellious youth behaviors. The author, Bell, evaluates and contrasts the legislations concerning youth enacted by the Canadian government in the past century. Specifically, the book highlights a comparison between the Juvenile Delinquency Act, The Young Offenders Act, and the present Youth Criminal Justice Act.
