Beschreibung

In a compelling exploration of youth and the long shadows cast by delinquency, Peggy C. Giordano meticulously chronicles the lives of a cohort of highly delinquent girls and boys over two decades. This extensive study delves into the complex interplay between familial, social, and environmental factors, revealing how these influences shape the trajectories of young offenders as they transition into adulthood. Giordano's approach provides not just a statistical overview, but also a rich narrative that humanizes the subjects, illuminating their struggles, setbacks, and moments of resilience.

The findings present a nuanced understanding of crime and its consequences on future generations, challenging prevailing notions about the irreversibility of delinquent behavior. By following these individuals over such an extended period, the work casts light on the intricate cycle of crime and identity, offering vital insights that are essential for policymakers, educators, and anyone invested in the future of at-risk youth. This study serves as both an academic contribution and a call to action for more compassionate and effective interventions.
