Example text
Increasingly when adolescents and servants escaped the control of pater familias in the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries, state and local authorities became the responsible parties. In England, Austria, France, and the other countries in Europe reformers, social scientists, and finally politicians and bureaucrats became increasingly alarmed about “juvenile” crime. An obvious solution was incarceration. The observation of an increase in youth on the street and, therefore, an increase in youth crime, prostitution, pimping, disorderly conduct, and so on suggested special labels for this behavior and special penal institutions.
