I'm recently retired from some 40 years of full-time teaching American history, public policy, and social sciences at University of Chicago (1966-1968), Berkeley (1968-1977), and California State University, Sacramento (1977-2007).

Er kritisierte die Erfindung der Jugenddelinquenz durch das Child Savers Movement: “the child savers should in no sense be considered libertarians or humanists". According to Anthony Platt, the child-saving movement came from the upper and middle classes who were instrumental in incorporating new methods of social control on a largely immigrant class—the immigrant class was seen as inferior to the typical Protestant white ethic that comprised most of America. | |||
Man denke an: indiscriminate arrest, indeterminate sentencing, military drill, and hard labor as the concrete results of their reforms. | |||
