Summary/Abstract: This article evolves around the lines of the most important normative solutions and policy of preventing and combating juvenile delinquency in England and Wales. The legal system of England and Wales has created some of the most important innovations in the treatment of juvenile delinquents, such as the establishment of the reforming and industrial schools, special courts for juveniles, probational and social services specialized for the work with the juvenile delinquents, alternative measures and sanctions, and a new concept of victim compensation, as well as the versatile teams oriented towards the work with juvenile delinquents. Simultaneously, the same legal system shows signs of a constant repressive approach, particularly apparent in the field of application of institutional sanctions. This is why some academics hold that there is a striking affinity towards prison institutions in England and Wales, making it one of the most repressive systems of juvenile justice in Europe.
