      abstract = {This comprehensive reference work presents an in-depth  analysis on the juvenile justice systems of 19 different  countries, both in EU-member states (old and new) and in  the United States and Canada. The book is the result of  research conducted by a group of outstanding scholars  working in the field of juvenile justice. The book reflects  a collective concern about trends in juvenile justice over  the past two decades; trends that have begun to blur the  difference between criminal and juvenile justice. The last  chapter highlights similarities and differences between the  various systems, identifying three clusters of countries  with a similar approach to juvenile justice. In particular,  differences are found between the Anglo-Saxon countries,  and continental Europe. The former have a more formal  "justice" approach, with a strong emphasis on the  accountability of juveniles, "just desert" principles, and  retribution, while the latter still operate on a "welfare"  philosophy. Two special systems, the Scottish Hearing  system and the Scandinavian model, are presented as well},
