David Finkelhor

Childhood Victimization

Violence, Crime, and Abuse in the Lives of Young People

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Children are the most criminally victimized segment of the population, but the problem has been addressed in a highly fragmented way, obscuring its true burden as well as the need for an integrated policy response. David Finkelhor, a longtime authority on child victimization and director of the Crimes against Children Research Center at the University of New Hampshire, uses this book to propose and advocate for such a comprehensive and integratedperspective.
