It is now the case that girls coming into the criminal justice system are much more likely to be jailed.

The overall approach is global in context.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e“Twenty years after publication of the first edition, this remains \u003ci\u003ethe \u003c\/i\u003edefinitive source for understanding both the experiences that bring girls into the orbit of the juvenile justice system and the system itself.
