Exploring the pressing issues of juvenile delinquency, victimization, and justice in Chinese societies, this book showcases contemporary research on these critical topics.

The collections provide a comprehensive examination of youth-related challenges and justice systems across mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan. Featuring contributions from top scholars in the field, the book is presented in three thematic sections – the nature and correlates of juvenile delinquency, the nature and correlates of juvenile victimization, and juvenile justice in Chinese societies. The chapters, applying a variety of mainstream criminological theories, address both persistent and emerging challenges facing Chinese adolescents, such as drug use, sexual offenses, cyberbullying, and victimization among left-behind children. The book enhances the theoretical and empirical understanding of youth delinquency, victimization, and justice within Chinese societies, while advancing the knowledge base in the field and offering valuable insights for future international and comparative research.

Contributing to the apprehension of both the applicability and limitation of Western-based criminological theories in the Chinese context, as well as providing a holistic lens to understand the juvenile justice system in China, this book will be of great interest to students and scholars of Criminology, Criminal Justice, Chinese Studies, Asian Studies, Sociology, Social Work, and Law.
