This article focuses on the investigation of juvenile offenses in Guangxi Zhuangzu Zizhiqu, China. Juvenile crime is an extremely serious problem in Guangxi today, posing a major threat to public security. According to statistics from relevant departments, the 1988 figure for juvenile offenders was 27,700, making up 80.5 percent of all criminal offenders. The majority of criminal cases involve illegal possession of property. Crimes of this nature have always occupied first place among juvenile criminal cases. They have become even more serious in recent years with the growth of the commodity economy. Individually speaking, juvenile crime is an expression of juvenile behavior. Collectively, it reveals a social phenomenon. Thus juvenile crime is the result of the interaction of the individual's quality and objective social factors. The reform and open policy of the past decade have infused great life into the Chinese national economy and promoted economic and social development. However, because of lack of attention to political and ideological work in recent years, corruption in party and government organizations and unhealthy social tendencies have appeared and are spreading.
