Background

Successful modern business marketing lays emphasis on meeting the needs of the customers.

Because custodial remand brings young people formally into the justice system and into close contact with what Mazerolle & Sanderson refer to as “deviant peers” (p.1), it can increase the possibility of (re)offending, too. ...
