Overview
As the author notes, the recent backlash against youth in trouble contrasts with a new concern with children's rights. By studying girls' experiences—including having lower self-esteem than boys—in the UK juvenile care and criminal justice systems, O'Neill (policy studies, U. of Bristol) contributes to policy debates on gender-divergent routes into the system and the mixing of offenders and non-offenders.
