Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Toronto (Canada), 2003.

During a period of tremendous change in the regulation and understanding of juvenile deviance (1860--1930) a working class "boy problem" plagued the streets of Toronto. This dissertation is about the construction of bad boys and the practices employed by various groups to control their wayward conduct. I trace the programmes, actors, legislation, and institutions of social governance that formed around, and latched on to, the problem of bad boys. Feminist historians have documented how wayward girls were arrested for violations of sexual mores. Far less attention has been given to the reasons why boys were institutionalized. As we will see, parents and juvenile justice officials dragged boys before the courts for other non-gender specific reasons (such as, crime, truancy, lack of self control, and unwillingness to fulfil breadwinner obligations). I argue that the delinquent conduct of bad boys outside of institutions invoked calls for rebuilding their masculinity. This dissertation highlights two institutional responses intended to curb the delinquent conduct of bad boys and turn them into men. First, the Victoria Industrial School (VIS) emerged in 1887 in response to a city wide crisis with truant boys. It boasted an education, religious, recreation, industrial training and drill agenda set in a carceral environment that promised to make men out of bad boys. Second, and by contrast, Toronto's Juvenile Court moved surveillance and governance of the boy problem from the confines of a carceral institution to the community through the programme of probation. Probation officers assembled knowledge about their charges that they used to create gendered reform strategies. I reveal the process through which three major programmes developed strategies for governing the boy problem between 1860 and 1930. Moral entrepreneurs, the Eugenics strategy, and the Environmental approach were not mutually exclusive or rigidly sequential. I argue that these distinct representations overlapped and never completely dominated the juvenile justice field. Each institution and each programme that converged on bad boys presented itself as the solution to the boy problem.
