Abstract
One of the most striking developments in juvenile justice over the past twenty years has been the increasing rapidity and the widening scope of change in theories, goals, and knowledge about delinquency and its prevention or control. Many competing biological, psychological, social, and cultural theories of delinquency have emerged in the last two decades, yet none is sufficient to account for the rate and forms of delinquency today.Keywords
