      abstract = {This compact resource synthesizes current research on  bullying in the schools while presenting strengths-based  approaches to curbing this growing epidemic. Its  international review of cross-sectional and longitudinal  studies unravels the complex dynamics of bullying and  provides depth on the range of negative outcomes for  bullies, victims, enablers, and victims who bully. Chapters  on protective factors against bullying identify personal  competencies, such as empathy development, and keys to a  positive school environment, featuring findings on  successful school-based prevention programs in different  countries. Throughout, the authors clearly define bullying  as a public health/mental health issue, and prevention as a  deterrent for future antisocial and criminal behavior. With  its wealth of answers to a global concern, Protecting  Children against Bullying and Its Consequences is a  definitive reference and idea book for the international  community of scholars in criminology and developmental  psychology interested in bullying and youth violence, as  well as practitioners and policymakers.},
