Ample coverage of juvenile courts makes this an ideal choice for Juvenile Justice and Juvenile Court courses as well as courses that center on parents and children s rights and obligations</li> <li>Logical organization, clear structure make it suitable for a variety of teaching styles</li> New to the Third Edition </ul>
<ul>
<li>
New Supreme Court cases: <ul>
<li>Schwarzenegger v. Entertainment Merchants' Association, which concerns the constitutionality of a California law banning the sale of violent video games to minors. This case takes up where Ginsberg v. New York (1968) left off.</li> <li>J.D.B. v. North Carolina, concerning how to apply Miranda when police interrogated a 13-year-old special ed student at school.</li> <li>Camreta v. Greene, which will decide whether the usual Fourth Amendment requirements, including the warrant requirement, apply when police want to interview a child about child abuse or neglect allegations</li> <li>Graham v. Florida, in which the Court held that the Eighth Amendment's Cruel and Unusual Punishments clause does not permit a juvenile offender to be sentenced to life in prison without parole for a non-homicide crime. The decision, which relies heavily on Roper v. Simmons, was a striking departure from the Court's long-standing "death is different" jurisprudence as well as a signal of Justice Kennedy's enduring belief in the potential for young offenders to be redeemed.</li> </ul>
</li> <li>
Thorough update on same-sex relationships, including new material on the California same-sex marriage decision, comparison of marriage with civil unions and domestic partnerships, and interstate recognition of adoption and parentage</li> </ul>

Wolters Kluwer Law and Business

At the turn of the twentieth century, the white slavery panic pervaded American politics, influencing the creation of the FBI, the enactment of immigration law, and the content of international treaties. At the core of this controversy was the maintenance of white national space. In this comprehensive account of the Progressive Era’s sex trafficking rhetoric, Leslie Harris demonstrates the centrality of white womanhood, as a symbolic construct, to the structure of national space and belonging. Introducing the framework of the mobile imagination to read across different scales of the controversy—ranging from local to transnational—she establishes how the imaginative possibilities of mobility within public controversy work to constitute belonging in national space.
