人如何成为一个国家机构对另一个国家机构的责任?流行的理论表明,被边缘化的群体越来越倾向于对生命历程进行强制控制,但更强制的机构可能并不总是对被送来的人承担责任。本文通过一个独特的交叉青少年案例--处于儿童福利和少年司法系统交界处的儿童--来说明国家机构如何谈判和争夺边缘群体的责任。为了解释这一过程,我提出了一个机构减持的概念框架,该框架认为,机构行为者试图为符合条件的任务或客户卸下责任,他们认为这些任务或客户会对他们可支配的资源造成不适当的压力,并让他们承担责任。这项分析利用了加州一家少年法庭的人种学数据和对法庭演员的采访,展示了社会服务和缓刑的演员是如何试图推卸对跨界青少年的责任的。在这一过程中,机构行为者构建并争夺跨界青年作为依赖或犯罪的地位。这些调查结果突出了将治理决策分析为相互关联的国家进程的重要性,并阐明了边缘化群体通往监狱的渠道可能永久存在并可能被扰乱的机制。
How do people become the responsibility of one state institution over another? Prevailing theory suggests that marginalized groups are funneled toward increasingly coercive control over the life course, yet more coercive institutions may not always assume responsibility for people sent their way. This article uses the unique case of crossover youth—children at the junction of child welfare and juvenile justice systems—to illustrate how state institutions negotiate and contest responsibility for marginalized groups. To explain this process, I advance a conceptual framework of institutional offloading, which contends that institutional actors seek to offload responsibility for eligible tasks or clients they perceive to unduly strain the resources at their disposal and expose them to blame. Drawing on ethnographic data from a California juvenile court and interviews with court actors, the analysis demonstrates how actors from Social Services, on one side, and Probation, on the other, attempt to offload responsibility for crossover youth. In this process, institutional actors construct and contest crossover youths’ status as dependent or delinquent. The findings highlight the importance of analyzing governance decisions as interlocking state processes and illuminate mechanisms by which the pipeline to prison for marginalized groups may be perpetuated and potentially disrupted.
