Article on Cities and Violence (CEPAL), by Laura Petrella and Franz Vanderschueren |
|
La delincuencia se ha constituido en un serio problema, en los últimos 20 años, en la mayoría de las ciudades de los países desarrollados y en las áreas urbanas de los países en desarrollo que, en muchos casos, han experimentado también un fuerte aumento demográfico. Además, la delincuencia se sitúa en un contexto de globalización del crimen organizado y del tráfico y consumo de drogas.

Young offenders and youth-at-risk : overview of current international approches, Ahmed Othmani |
|
Penal Reform International works on Prison and Penal Reform around the world. A great deal of our work concerns juveniles and juvenile justice. PRI believes that a proper administration of juvenile justice cannot be achieved without a strong education and welfare system. Helping young people in conflict with the law to become law abiding adult citizens is much more the job of parents, teachers, social workers and psychologists than it is of police, courts and prisons. PRI is of the opinion that juvenile offending should be dealt with as far as possible from the formal criminal justice and penal system.
