Summary/Abstract: International standards related to the legal status of the child set requirements for respecting the rights and taking into account the best interests of the child. These fundamental provisions are also enshrined in the legal standards on juvenile delinquency. The insufficient efficiency of criminal justice (despite the existence of special procedural rules), as well as of the penitentiary proceedings with regard the juveniles, raises the need for the application of alternative measures to punishment. The restorative justice approach is particularly effective.
