Abstract: In Romania, the issue of child offender, who is not criminally culpable because of age related reasons raises serious difficulties both in preventing and limiting this phenomenon, and in providing effective measures for rehabilitation and social integration for this target group. Byadopting the ,,Convention on the Rights of the Child’’, Romania hasaligned with the rest of the countries involved in respecting the international law regarding the protection of children’s rights. However, theinterventions aiming atspecific practices of these cases have failed to outline a strategic line that defines the type of approach: punitive or restorative? In this context, this article describes the laws, principles, authorities, services and specific interventions for children who break the law, who are not criminally liable. For those who are interested in such community problems, this article would representan excellent study on Romania's position both with regard to welfare policies (purely assistance) and in relation to workfare policies (involvement).
