juvenile, punishment, criminal liability, preventionAbstract
The trends of increasing juvenile crime require adequate preventive measures. These measures must be tailored to the specific characteristics of offenders in view of their young age.
This article examines issues related to the criminal liability of juvenile offenders. It discusses which persons are criminally liable and what types of punishments can be imposed on juveniles under Bulgarian criminal law. A comparison is also made with the legal framework under the Serbian Criminal Code.
Proposals are made for the introduction of new types of sanctions aimed at the prevention and deterrence of juvenile crime.
