Young People and Social Control

Focusing on the experiences of disadvantaged youth in the UK, this book examines social control and the state's impact on those living on society's fringes. It highlights the challenges faced by young people in education, the labor market, and interactions with police and the criminal justice system. Through in-depth interviews and observations conducted in Scotland and England, the authors reveal the barriers to justice, equity, and inclusion that these individuals encounter in their daily lives.
