The Institute is glad to present issue no. 5 of Oñati Socio-Legal Series, vol. 11, titled "Youth violence: De-escalation strategies and socio-legal responses" and edited by Murray Lee (University of Sydney), Asher Flynn (Monash University) and Mark Halsey (Flinders University). The issue is the result of a workshop held at the Oñati International Institute for the Sociology of Law in July 2019. According to the editors, "it seeks to reflect the rich tapestry of factors, contexts and processes that can place young people at risk of offending, or, perhaps even more importantly, at risk of criminalisation, as presented in the special issue collection. We reflect on the range of perspectives presented across the special issue on youth violence and the de-escalation of such violence, which seek to advance knowledge, and identify strategies for regulating and preventing this behaviour".
