Girl Trouble: Female Delinquency in English Canada

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Rising crime, moral panic, or child-blaming? This serious study, the product of intricate and wide-ranging research, attempts to answer why juvenile delinquency, especially of girls, is a persistent--and popular-- theme in media: * Is juvenile crime the real issue? * Is 'moral panic' a real or manufactured? * Who gains when children are blamed? * What are the politics of juvenile delinquency? By tracing the history of young women and crime, the author punctures myths surrounding these issues. Girl Trouble uncovers the voices of girls and their families caught up in the juvenile justice system, and provides a critical look at the definitions of, and solutions to, female delinquency.
