Rural and Urban Juvenile Delinquency in Međimurje

Ivan Magdalenić

Sažetak

The article treats juvenile delinquency in
Međimurje between 1984 and 1993. Data
about village and town delinquents are
compared, showing that rural juvenile
delinquency is rarer, but more varied in
kind. It is unplanned more often than
urban delinquency, but accompanied with
violence. Urban delinquents are usually
younger and more often form part of
larger groups. Many juvenile delinquents,
especially in the village, are poorly
educated, have a low socio-economic
status, and more pathological family
circumstances. Over 40 per cent of the
delinquents (somewhat fewer in the
village than in towns) had already been
the object ot protective measures, mostly
of a general nature, not specific treatment
for juvenile delinquents. Some data
indicate the "modernization" of village
juvenile delinquency, while others indicate
that the rural environment still acts as a
kind of barrier to juvenile crime.
