Abstract
Trends in juvenile crime in the Netherlands are described using police statistics and self-report studies. A sharp rise in juvenile crime is suggested by the police statistics, while the self-report studies reveal a more stable picture. Attention has been paid to explanations of this discrepancy. Furthermore, an overview is given of the penal interventions applied in the Netherlands and the number of young people affected by them. The article ends by looking at how juvenile crime is tackled in practice.
