This text is a thorough study of the Cook County Juvenile Court in Chicago, one of the myriad of progressive initiatives designed to impose order on an increasingly diverse turn-of-the-century American city. The book provides an examination of adolescence, sex, delinquency, race and gender.
Examining the encounters between the girls and the new arm of the state in Cook County, Illinois, Anne Meis Knupfer illuminates the origin of American notions of gender and delinquency. Combining rigorous research with passionate writing, Reform and Resistance is a good story about bad girls.
