Merging and emerging systems of juvenile justice are a product of reforms that track juveniles into distinct legal categories. The varying ways of bringing juveniles into the adult legal process are reviewed along with the justifications for waiver. The effectiveness of waiver policies is seen as a technique of managing delinquents rather than reducing rates of recidivism. The policy implications of waiver along with suggestions for research directions are discussed
