Summary/Abstract: This study focuses on the judicial individualization of punishments, a fundamental principle of Romanian criminal law as provided in the Romanian Criminal Code. It aims to explain how this principle serves to adapt sanctions based on the gravity of the crime, the social danger it represents, as well as to the particularities of the offender. The purpose of judicial individualization is to ensure the application of fair, proportionate and efficient punishment, in accordance with the preventive and educational functions of criminal sanctions.
