- 요약"Incorrigible" examines Chicago's early juvenile legal system, 1899-1928, from the perspective of children and youth experiencing policing of family life. It asks how children and youth not only experienced policing and institutionalization, but how they negotiated expanded criminal liability in intimate spheres. This work shows that social service workers, police, charity workers, and institutional administrators concurrently collaborated with each other and with parents to create purportedly rehabilitative arrangements for those youth characterized as delinquent or dependent, who were overwhelmingly poor, working-class, and racially minoritized. Youth were deterred, policed, and punished differently depending on their class, race, ethnicity, and gender. Identity-based distinctions determined which youth were deterred towards ostensible rehabilitation and which youth were outwardly punished. These designations shaped the purpose, tenor, and experience of institutionalization and how quickly children and youth moved from dependency to delinquency via juvenile legal infrastructure. As the Juvenile Court Bill, which create Chicago's Juvenile Court in 1899, created new categories of age-based criminalized behavior, the pool of children and youth exposed to this system expanded. Age-based offenses trapped these youth in criminalizing cycles through discretionary policing and sentencing, which investigated "the whole child" rather than determined guilt or innocence in specific incidents. Centering stories of children and youth involved in this system reveals a more complex and dynamic exchange rather than a top-down implementation of ethics. Questions about statebuilding via juvenile legal infrastructure have historically excluded children and youth, prioritizing custodial or "child saving frameworks." This gap is in part attributed to the muted archival presence of children and youth and lacking verifiability in available sources. Examining life histories, case files, letters, prison newspapers, and institutional documents reveals that children openly and frequently discussed their problems, circumstances, and desires, but in ways that were not always readily discernible. My method circumvents individualistic verifiability to instead search for underlying patterns and meaning. Impacted children and youth shared needs, aspirations, challenges, and anxieties that, to them, were real, if not always material. Through this method, I argue that youth attempted to negotiate state expectations and ostensible rehabilitation against their own understandings of self-ownership and their own visions of need, desire, and safety through strategies of selective participation and resistance. In doing so, impacted youth defied, at times expanded, and actively shaped Chicago's burgeoning juvenile legal system.
