Rethinking Youth Justice: Comparative Analysis, International Human Rights and Research Evidence

Barry Goldson

Derived from a more ambitious international youth justice research project, this article aims to critically interrogate the direction of contemporary youth justice policy in England and Wales and the political priorities that underpin it. By rethinking youth justice on the basis of comparative analysis, international human rights and research evidence, we challenge the current policy trajectory and offer an alternative formulation: a youth justice with integrity.

Key Words: comparative analysis • evidence • human rights • integrity • justice • research
