Prof. Feld article on the rise of violent crime arrests among girls

We encourage those interested in the topic of Prof. Feld's lecture on girls in the juvenile justice system to read this article. The topic is the rise of violent crime arrests among adolescent girls. Prof. Feld offers the theory that this rise is a result of changing attitudes that disproportionately affect females, not a radical shift in how many violent acts girls are committing.

Note: if you can't access the article through the publisher, it is also available at this link.
