La parole est aux accusés: Histoires d'une jeunesse sous sourveillance

Véronique Blanchard, Mathias Gardet (Textuel, 2020)

According to an automated translation of the description of the book, "A masterly face-off of archives: the word of working-class youth from the 1950s and 1960s versus that of the Department of Supervision. Thanks to shocking and totally unpublished archives, the stories of twelve teenagers, six girls and six boys, who were in trouble with the law after the war, are revealed here. Véronique Blanchard... and Mathias Gardet deliver their analysis of a justice system obsessed with social control."
