Delinquency and Substance Use in Europe: Understanding Risk and Protective Factors
Editat de David P. Farrington, Harrie Jonkman, Frederick Groeger-Rothen Limba Engleză Hardback – 3 noi 2020
The chapters in this book compare similarities and differences between the countries, possible explanations of these, and the implications of the results for theories and for intervention policy and practice. Additionally, it provides evidence about the replicability over time and place of the strength of relationships between (i) risk and protective factors and (ii) delinquency and substance use. In turn, this increases confidence in the generalizability of criminological theories over time and place.
It will be of interest to researchers and practitioners in criminology and criminal justice, particularly those with an interest in developmental and life-course criminology, juvenile delinquency, and substance use, as well as crime prevention and intervention.

Recenzii
“I believe this edited volume will be of great interest to many different audiences. It will certainly inspire those engaged in and wanting to engage in collaborative research projects, especially international partnerships. In describing the adaptation, validation, and implementation of a youth self-report survey, the book will be of great value to methodologists. … the book should be read by academics, policy makers, and practitioners interested in preventing the development of problem behaviors.” (Abigail A. Fagan, International Criminology, Vol. 1, 2021)

Textul de pe ultima copertă
This book examines the use of “Communities That Care” (CTC) interventions in European countries. It reports results obtained by using the CTC Youth Survey in five European countries covering different parts of Europe – Great Britain, the Netherlands, Germany, Croatia, and Cyprus. The main aim of the book is to compare (a) the prevalence of delinquency and substance use, (b) the prevalence of key risk and protective factors, and (c) the strength of relationships between risk and protective factors and delinquency and substance use, in these five European countries.
The chapters in this book compare similarities and differences between the countries, possible explanations of these, and the implications of the results for theories and for intervention policy and practice. Additionally, it provides evidence about the replicability over time and place of the strength of relationships between (i) risk and protective factors and (ii) delinquency and substance use. Inturn, this increases confidence in the generalizability of criminological theories over time and place.
It will be of interest to researchers and practitioners in criminology and criminal justice, particularly those with an interest in developmental and life-course criminology, juvenile delinquency, and substance use, as well as crime prevention and intervention.
