SP - 23 EP - 32 VL - 1 IS - 3 N2 - For centuries, society has been inclined to place responsibility for delinquency and crime upon the individual offender rather than on society itself, delinquents being regarded as inferiors, physically mentally and emotionally. for these anti-social beings who willfully violated the rules of society it was generally condeded that pubishment should be the chief method of treatment. As a result of careful study of delinquency and crime, a new conception of the nature of the nature of the problem as developed. It has been demonstrated that no factual relationship between delinquency and nationality, race, and creed. All nationality and racial groups experience the problem when they are exposed to the social and econimic conditions in which delinquency flourishes.
