«La violence des jeunes en question» is the essay by Véronique Le Goaziou and Laurent Mucchielli (Champ social éditions, 150 pages, in French, paperback).
It analyses youth violence in France and the gap between media and political alarmism and real knowledge of the phenomenon. Drawing on historical data, statistics and court records, it answers questions such as what crimes minors commit, how they evolve and are measured, who the victims and perpetrators are, and how the police and justice system intervene.
The work belongs to the 'Questions de société' collection and was published on 8 October 2009. Its authors are sociologists and historians, researchers at the CNRS (Cesdip).
Intended for readers interested in sociology, youth delinquency and public debate; its accessible writing allows it to be followed without specialised training.
