Write 9 page essay on the topic Law/ Criminal Justice.

By that theory and also by theories of Durkheim’s1 organic society and mechanical society, it is imperative to make sure that when an individual flouts law (that is the social order and cooperation on which it is based) that person the society needs to react. Such reaction has been long debated with the crux being whether to remove the person from the mainstream and to alienate him completely or to rehabilitate him into the society through correctional measures that are restorative in nature.

It is important for one to however look at Juvenile Delinquency differently from general crimes or criminal tendencies. The term `juvenile delinquency’2 has been differently interpreted but, generally speaking, it refers to a large variety of behaviour of children and adolescents which the society does not approve and for which some kind of admonishment, punishment or preventive and corrective measures are justified in public interest.

The situation in the Nonesuch County can be addressed through several theories on Juvenile delinquency as such academic discourse is required to decide the best course of action. The theory we need to look at most carefully is the watershed concepts of Sheldon and Eleanor Glueck who had evolved the Multifactor approach to juvenile delinquency. 3 Glueck and Glueck used the multi -factor approach in comparing five hundred delinquents with five hundred non-delinquents. The delinquents were matched by residence in under privileged areas, age, ethnic or origin and intelligence. They considered sociological viable (the environment) and psychological variables (internal dynamic processes). In addition, they administered tests. They concluded that delinquency of the youngsters could not be blamed on any one set of factors. The delinquent behaviour was the result of a combination of intellectual, social, tempera-mental and physical factors. To pinpoint any particular one would be difficult.
