Navigating the Borderlands
This study explores the experiences of eight system-impacted Latina girls through interviews, using Anzaldúa’s borderlands framework as a theoretical lens to examine how they navigate cultural expectations of gender and sexuality within their families and the juvenile legal system. These young women resist oppressive norms, challenging white hegemonic feminism and traditional gender roles. Their perceived “transgressions”—speaking out about sexua…
Latinas in the Criminal Justice System
The Encyclopedia of Women and Crime
According to the US Department of Justice, the number of females in the correctional population more than doubled between 1986 and 1997, and between 1990 and 2000 the number of adult female inmates increased at a faster rate than that of men. This is a reference book on the subject of women and crime, a field of study growing in interest since the late 1960s. Consisting of over 240 detailed entries, it is international in scope and covers women a…
The Latina penalty
This study investigates perceptions of Latina juvenile offenders among juvenile probation officers, judges, psychologists, and other juvenile correctional decision makers. Using in-depth interviews with 62 juvenile justice professionals, this article examines how gender and culture are constructed and how such constructions can lead correctional decision makers to stereotypical and oftentimes punitive recommendations and responses. Overall, the a…
Beyond Confinement
Throughout transformations in juvenile justice, control over girls’ bodies, sexual behavior, and reproductive choices has remained a constant focal point among decision makers, with girls infrequently charged with serious law violations and commonly judged in terms of their moral welfare and chasteness. Using interview data with 62 court and correctional decision makers, this article examines how the contemporary juvenile justice system responds …
Bringing Latinas to the Forefront
Feminist Criminology
Traditional explanations for crime and delinquency have mostly focused on male offending. While men were the primary subjects of criminological research and theory as well as the central focus of the justice system, gender was not explicitly examined. Consequently, girls and women—whether as victims or offenders—were often ignored by justice professionals and misrepresented in criminological theory. Feminist criminology remedied this deficiency i…
Girls, Women, and Crime
Written by leading scholars in the field, this compilation of journal articles on the female offender surveys four major areas: female criminality; female juvenile delinquents; women as offenders; and women in prison
The Female Offender
'The Female Offender' challenges the long-standing tradition of male-dominated criminology theory and research which has taken little or no account of gender differences
Youth Violence and Hegemonic Masculinity among Pacific Islander and Asian American Adolescents
“She's Way Too Good to Lose”
This research evaluates the efficacy of a gender-specific, problem-solving court for girl offenders. Official statistics, interview data, and focus group data are utilized to determine whether the court is achieving its stated goals of reducing recidivism, risky behaviors, and confinement for the girls who attend this court program. The present research demonstrates that the program does seem to be effective in terms of reducing both recidivism a…
Pathways and Predictors of Juvenile Justice Involvement for Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander Youths
Despite the growth of Native Hawaiian and other Pacific Islander (NHOPI) youths in court and correctional involvement, studies of their delinquency and juvenile justice involvement are quite limited, and the literature becomes almost nonexistent when examining gender differences. Using case file analysis of 150 Native Hawaiian/part-Hawaiian and Pacific Islander juvenile offenders, this article addresses this dearth of research by showing NHOPI's …
The Wayward Girl Revisited
Traditional explanations of delinquency have mostly focused on male offending. While men were the primary subjects of criminological research as well as the central focus of the justice system, gender was rarely explicitly examined, and consequently, girls often went unnoticed. Today, however, female juvenile offenders’ visibility both in research and in the system has changed. This essay reviews feminist theorizing of girls’ delinquency, with a …
The Female Offender
Naked Power
The stripper-customer interaction is a complicated manipulation of emotional labour and symbolic communication. Using a series of carefully constructed interactions resembling a confidence game, strippers create and maintain control over their customers. This article uses findings from a participant-observation study performed in Hawaii and explores the motivation, social roles, and consequences involved in the striptease act. In an attempt to ac…
