{"product_id":"black-youths-delinquency-and-juvenile-janice-joseph-9780275949099","title":"Black Youths, Delinquency, and Juvenile Justice","description":"Over the past decade, a growing body of research has delineated the nature and extent of delinquency, as well as the role of the juvenile justice system. Despite such research, the causes and consequences of delinquency and the role of the justice system remain poorly understood, particularly in regard to minority groups. This book is intended to meet a two-fold need: to extend research into the area of delinquency generally and to further research into the sociology of Black youths. The author explores critical issues such as the rates of delinquency among Black youths, explanations of delinquency, and the juvenile justice system's treatment of Black youths, as well as the policy implications for designing culturally sensitive and effective delinquency treatment and prevention programs. Joseph's work will be of interest to scholars in sociology\/criminology, criminal justice, and Black studies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Janice Joseph\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0275949095\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780275949099\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Praeger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/20\/1995\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.12lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.62h x 6.42w x 0.87d","brand":"Janice Joseph","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48135958397183,"sku":"9780275949099","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_309f1ecc-4bae-43c9-8cfa-6f9da3d321c6.jpg?v=1770159575","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/black-youths-delinquency-and-juvenile-janice-joseph-9780275949099","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
