Giving Everyone a “Fair Go”
The Production of Guilt in the Juvenile Justice System
Analysts of criminal justice have become increasingly sensitive to the question of the voluntariness of the defendant's plea. In England, the United States and Australia it has been argued that pressures are applied to defendants to admit guilt. Although these studies have focussed predominantly on the adult jurisdiction, there is ample evidence to suggest that the majority of children also plead guilty, thereby waiving their right to a trial and…
Aboriginal Visibility in the ‘System’
In Australia, Aborigines, both adult and juvenile, experience a disproportionately higher degree of contact with ‘authorities’ and ‘the system’ than do members of the mainstream community. An examination of youth offending records in South Australia during the period, 1 July, 1979–30 June, 1983, illustrates that Aboriginal youth are not only over-represented in terms of the numbers appearing before the Children's Court and Children's Aid Panels, …
Rural and Urban Crime Rates Amongst Aboriginal Youth
In the 1960s the crime rates of Aboriginal juveniles in Adelaide were substantially lower than those of their rural counterparts. By the 1980s, this pattern has been reversed. Moreover, appearances by city‐dwelling Aborigines are now more likely to take place by way of arrest rather than summons, are more likely to come before a Children's Court rather than an Aid Panel, and are more likely to involve youths with a previous record than is the cas…
Variations in the Over‐Representation of Aboriginal Young Offenders in the Criminal Justice System
It is well publicised that Aborigines, both adult and juvenile, are over‐represented in the criminal justice system. However, an examination of youth offending in South Australia during the period 1 July 1979 — 30 June 1983 has indicated that the degree of Aboriginal over‐representation increases rapidly as they move up through the various stages of the system. They are least over‐represented at the lowest stage, namely at the Children's Aid Pane…
