Pathways and Crime Prevention (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: France, Alan; Homel, Ross

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book considers the development of prevention policies and approaches that involve intervention 'early' in the lives of children, young people and their families. It addresses a number of key challenges, arguing that by broadening the research questions and exploring contributions from a wider range of disciplines our understanding of both the pathways into and out of crime and the type of interventions that might work will be greatly enhanced.
