商品簡介
Wooden (sociology and coordinator of the Criminal Justice and Corrections program at California State Polytechnic U., Pomona) and Blazak (sociology, Portland State U.) define what is normal and deviant among teens by distinguishing between socially harmless identity seekers (renegades), and volatile and potentially dangerous youths prone to law-breaking (suburban outlaws). Focusing on the white, middle-class suburban teenager, the authors study emerging youth cultures: anarchists, gutterpunks, heavy metalers, tagger crews, skinheads, stoners, Satanists, and others. The second edition includes new chapters on school crime, added case studies, attention to gender and cross-cultural issues, media reports, and more discussion of delinquency theory and juvenile justice methodology.
