Warwick: A New Approach to the Problem of Juvenile Delinquency
Abstract
There is scarcely any problem in the world today which needs a more searching analysis than that of crime. History has shown us how the centuries have utilized every imaginary weapon to carry on their war against this anti- social form of human behavior, but even the most repressive and violent of these measures has been hopelessly unavailing. Far back when man was in his most primative stage, we find a state of affairs of the "Dog eat dog" variety, in which an injury received could only be atoned for by an injury given; this law of fang continued along the ages, was used by the Jews under the guise of the Mosaic Law, and had a lasting vogue among the nations which followed in the course of time. Prohibitive as it was, its only significance is its futility in checking the problem of crime despite world-wide use.
