It reviews knowledge about risk factors for recidivism and about protective factors that encourage desistance. It then reviews quantitative research on predictors of recidivism versus desistance of young offenders in Buenos Aires, Argentina, based on following up over 100 young offenders during a two-year statutory monitoring period. Numerous factors are identified that predict recidivism: family, educational, social, community, demographic, offence history, substance use history. It then presents qualitative research based on offenders’ narratives, using extensive verbatim quotations, that explain their recidivism versus desistance. Finally, it reviews research on the prevention of recidivism of young offenders and makes recommendations based on the quantitative and qualitative analyses. This book should be of great interest to all academics, researchers, practitioners and policy makers who are interested in juvenile offending and recidivism, including criminologists, psychologists, psychiatrists, social scientists and criminal justice practitioners. Provides quantitative and qualitative evidence for prediction of recidivism in the lesser-studied context of Argentina; Reviews most significant risk factors for youth delinquency, recidivism and protective factors for youth desistance; Reviews key research on the prevention of youth offending and recidivism. .SpringerBriefs in Criminology,2192-8541CriminologyJuvenile delinquentsCriminology in the Global SouthYouth Offending and Juvenile JusticeCriminology.Juvenile delinquents.Criminology in the Global South.Youth Offending and Juvenile Justice.364Orlando Mirian Susana1735448Farrington David P.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910847077803321Understanding and Preventing Recidivism of Young Offenders in Argentina4270649UNINA
