Youth Crime During „Sattelzeit“

拟议的项目旨在探讨18世纪末和19世纪上半叶所谓的“Sattelzeit”期间少年犯罪的概念。据推测，在此期间，对青年犯罪的理解和处理方式发生了根本性的转变。具体而言，将解决以下问题：1。 与特别归因于成年人的犯罪相比，在所分析的资料来源中，经证实的青年犯罪是否具有独立的性质？2. 青少年犯罪的原因是什么？3. 假设对犯罪行为有什么反应，这些措施的目标是什么？这些问题将集中在三种类型的来源：自1825年以来，普鲁士文化部的法令，警察条例和报纸上的公共辩论的答案。因此，重建被故意限制在政治行政和公共话语。该项目汇集了来自三种来源的分析，以便在一个有区别的总体概要中对上述时期的青少年犯罪情况作出一个复杂的描述。该项目的目标包括从原则上重新认识如何看待青年，以及如何证明对被控犯罪的青年采取特别帮助和教育措施是合理的。因此，该项目以青少年犯罪为重点，不仅对历史犯罪研究，而且对历史青年研究以及历史社会教育学都将作出重要贡献。

The proposed project aims to explore the conceptualization of juvenile delinquency during the so-called “Sattelzeit” towards the end of the 18th and the first half of the 19th century. It is assumed that during this period a fundamental transformation of the way in which youth crime was understood and should be dealt with occurred. Specifically, the following questions will be addressed:1. Is youth crime attested an independent quality in the sources analyzed compared to the crime attributed to adults in particular? 2. What reasons are given for the delinquency of young people?3. What reactions to delinquency are postulated and what goals are associated with these measures?These questions will be focused by three types of sources: Answers to rescripts of the Prussian Ministry of Culture since 1825, police ordinances and public debates in newspapers. The reconstruction is thus deliberately limited to the political-administrative and public discourse. The project brings together analyses from the three types of sources in order to develop a complex picture of juvenile delinquency in the period mentioned above in a differentiated overall synopsis. The project objectives include a reconstruction of how youth was conceived in principle and how special measures of help and education were justified for young people accused of delinquency. Therefore, with its focus on juvenile delinquency, the project will make an important contribution not only to historical crime research, but also to historical youth research, as well as to historical social pedagogy.
