• W59258941 abstract "This paper presents the outcomes of a two year longitudinal study of young people with re-offendinghistories who attempt to reintegrate back to their communities following their release from detention.The research focuses on the risks young people identified which impede them from making successfulpost-release destinations. Such factors include dysfunctional homes, poverty, peer group influences,substance abuse and a lack of accessibility to education and employment. Interview data shows thatin many cases the structured life of institutions such as detention is often preferable to theunstructured unpredictable life that exists in outside world for many young people. The paperconcludes with some strategies which could be assist young offenders to make successfulreintegrations and to desist from crime.The nature of risk and risk taking on the individual in late modern society has been an ongoingsociological debate. The work of Ulrich Beck (1992) and Anthony Giddens (1991) argued that theworld can no longer depend on the rationality of science to provide answers to new problemsCROCCS Conference 3-5 August 2007 122 Overcoming Violence and Povertyassociated with the effects of industrialisation. As a new and dangerous world emerges, individualsare more concerned with preventing or removing risk from their lives. Risks therefore become moreindividualized and society regards problems as individual shortcomings rather than as a resultof social processes. As the individual loses the traditional markers of security such as belonging to aparticular social class or family he/she has becomes 'disembedded' from the old order andreintegrated into a new and changing new social order. The liberation for the individual from thetraditional societal markers allows them to develop reflexive biographies where they can freely choosetheir identities through access to various forms of consumption such as fashion, leisure oroccupations.However while the individual may have the freedom to consume and construct alternative identitiesthey are at the same time constrained and increasingly dependent on secondary agencies thatshape their biographies through the kinds of interactions they have with institutions such as education,health and training programmes leading the individual to become institutionally dependent onindividual situations (p.130). The conditions of doubt that penetrate all social life means that theconstruction of ones identity therefore becomes a lonely business which is full of risks which need tobe confronted and fought alone (Bauman 2001, p.xvii).However not all sectors of society are confronted with the same risks. For example wealthy peoplecan buffer themselves from potential risk compared to less well off or vulnerable social groups. Thedevelopment of individualised risk society therefore has implications for the sectors of society whomay not possess social economic or political power. Inequalities in class and risk society cantherefore overlap and condition one another, the latter can produce the former (Beck, 1992:45). Riskand poverty and class are therefore more likely to coincide producing unequal life outcomes for somegroups of individuals.Research on young people portray them as risk takers who are often more vulnerable while they aredeveloping their biographies and making the transition from adolescence to adulthood. Furlong andCartmel (1997) suggest that individualization and the feelings of greater vulnerability have increasedyoung people's insecurity and heightened their awareness of risk. Certainly young people today face avery different world from their parents as they encounter less certainty due to the changing labourmarket, an increased demand for an educated workforce and in many cases an extended period ofdependency on their families.However Furlong and Cartmel's analysis is limited because it fails to recognise that some youngpeople are more vulnerable to the risks of society compared to other youth who are economically andsocially advantaged. This paper attempts to address this limitation by focusing on the social andCROCCS Conference 3-5 August 2007 123 Overcoming Violence and Povertycultural contexts of how young male Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander youth who have histories ofreoffending behaviour construct their biographies in limiting the risks associated with reintegratingback to their communities after their release from detention." @default.
