Delinquency and Citizenship: Reclaiming the Young Offender 1914-1948

No Customer Reviews

Drawing on in-depth research and historical case studies, this book looks at the formation, development, and implementation of policy for young offenders between 1914 and 1948 in the context of the welfare activities of modern Britain. Bailey presents detailed discussions not only of the systems--the juvenile court, early probation, the approved schools, and the borstal training system--but also of background of the "liberal progressive" men and women who worked to promote reform during these years.
