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.
