Concerns have been raised about how best to manage this group, many of whom are homeless, drug-addicted, HIV-infected and\/or involved in the sex trade. It has fallen to provinvical governments to respond with new legislation and policy to regulate these \"new street urchins\", and the provincial statutes are similar, in many respects, to legislatino linked with child-saving reforms at the beginning of the 20th Century. Ironically, this old legislation was introduced to deal with a comparable group of troublesome, urban, \"street urchins.\" The work of Cohen's (1985) and especially his notions of patterns of social control ar used to explain the unintended consequences of reforms that began in the 1960s and that have resulted in the new provincial youth control legislation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kathy Powelson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3639013891\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783639013894\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e VDM Verlag Dr. Mueller E.K.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/08\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.42lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.29d","brand":"Kathy Powelson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48440335892735,"sku":"9783639013894","price":63.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f314abb0-46f5-46f5-b190-596271df218a.jpg?v=1777181771","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/youth-justice-and-the-new-kathy-powelson-9783639013894","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
