R. Cornelli (2025), Minori e criminalità. Le etichette che hanno successo e i dati che fanno pensare

If anything, it points to the hypothesis – initially supported by monthly incarceration trends – that political choices are accelerating the crisis of the juvenile justice system, leading to overcrowding in Juvenile Detention Institutes.

G. Valducci (2025), Critica della vittima ideale e giustizia riparativa: da un discorso sulle vittime (ideali) a un discorso della vittima (reale)

The article critically examines the concept of the “ideal victim” and its pervasive role in contemporary public discourse (both political and media-related).
