Understanding Youth and Crime by Sheila Brown
Explores the social construction of childhood and youth, and looks at the role of the media in creating an association of young people with crime and disorder, which sustains processes of marginalization and exclusion and leads to frequent 'panics' about youth crime. This book is suitable for students in criminology, sociology, and social policy.
Sheila Brown is Lecturer in Criminology at the Faculty of Law, University of Sheffield. Her previous publications include Crime and Law in Media Culture (2003) and Understanding Youth and Crime (1998).
