Approaching from the UN Convention of the Right of the Child (UNCRC) and the principle of best interest of the child is mandatory in all decision-makings in all EU countries. However, we can see notable contradictions between the articles of UNCRC, the best interest principle and the practice of juvenile justice systems almost in every EU member state. International organisations and national states make efforts to cross the contradictions and to guarantee the rights stated in the UNCRC. In this paper, we present some attempts to enhance the juvenile justice systems while focusing on Estonian case. Participation in two international action research projects enables authors to give an overview about the situation how the rights of Estonian children in detention are followed and what are the main tendencies in everyday practice.

The position of children who have special rights in the law makes children get special treatment. In the juvenile justice system in Indonesia, there are two systems of sanctions, namely criminal sanctions and actions, and this is done to realize the protection of children who are dealing with the law.  This research is a normative juridical review, using a statute, comparative and conceptual approaches. The results show that the imposition of sanctions on children is based on the child's age, where children aged 12 to before 14 years can only be sanctioned with actions, and children aged 14 to before 18 years may be subject to criminal sanctions or actions.

Justice Systems

In most Western countries, juvenile justice systems are confronted with a punitive framing of the problem of juvenile delinquency, which challenges the rehabilitative philosophy behind the first laws for minors passed in the first half of the 20th century. Through a sociohistorical study that focuses on the French case, I decrypt the emergence of a new model of ‘rehabilitation under constraint’, symbolized by the opening of new closed educational centers in 2002, followed by new supposedly rehabilitative prisons in 2007. Based on the neoliberal search for a responsibilization of youths, this model revives an old disciplinary utopia that calls our attention to the presumed need for a ‘return of authority’.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis metode musyawarah mufakat sebagai implementasi diversi dalam penyelesaian kasus anak berkonflik dengan hukum. Artikel ini berargumen bahwa metode musyawarah mufakat lebih efektif digunakan sebagai metode diversi dalam menyelesaikan kasus anak pelaku kejahatan. Metode musyawarah mufakat memberikan solusi yang tepat dan biaya yang ringan serta mampu memberikan keadilan seimbang karena proses/prosedur pelaksanaannya tidak serumit model institusional hukum formal yang ditentukan dalam peraturan diversi dalam Undang-Undang Sistem Peradilan Anak. Model diversi yang diatur dalam ini lebih rigid, formal dan kurang akomodatif terhadap keinginan para pihak. Metode musyawarah mufakat lebih memberikan keadilan subtantif dibandingkan dengan model diversi secara institusional yang cenderung memberikan keadilan formal prosedural. This study aims to analyze the consensus method as a practical implementation in the use of diversion in the resolution of cases of children who are dealing with the law. This article argues that the consensus method is more effectively used as a diversion method in resolving cases of crime-harassed children. The consensus agreement method provides the right solution and low cost and is able to provide balanced justice because the process / procedure for its implementation is not as complex as the formal legal institutional model specified in the diversionary rules in the Juvenile Justice System Law. The diversion model regulated in this law is more rigid, formal and less accommodating to the wishes of the parties. In addition, the consensus method of giving more substantive justice than the institutional diversion model which tends to provide procedural formal justice.

Anak sebagai generasi penerus bangsa sudah selayaknya mendapatkan perhatian khusus. Hal tersebut bertujuan dalam rangka pembinaan anak untuk mewujudkan sumber daya manusia yang berkualitas. Maka dari itu, diperlukan pula sarana dan prasarana hukum yang mengantisipasi segala permasalahan yang timbul. Sarana hukum ini bertujuan untuk mengantisipasi stigma atau cap jahat yang ditimbulkan ketika anak berhadapan dengan hukum, sekaligus memulihkan dan memasyarakatkan kembali anak tersebut. Salah satu solusinya adalah dengan mengalihkan atau menempatkan pelaku tindak pidana anak keluar dari sistem peradilan pidana serta memberikan alternatif bagi penyelesaian dengan pendekatan keadilan demi kepentingan terbaik bagi anak, yang kemudian dikenal dengan pendekatan restorative justice. Restorative justice yang merupakan implementasi konsep dari diversi telah dirumuskan dalam sistem peradilan pidana anak, namun sistem yang baik haruslah diiringi dengan suatu sikap yang dijiwai kehendak untuk memandang dan berkeyakinan bahwa dunia ini selalu menjadi lebih baik. Selain itu, hendaknya prinsip the best interest of the children selalu diutamakan ketika menangani anak yang berhadapan dengan hukum. Children as the nation's next generation is already deserve special attention.

The legal means to anticipate stigma or stamp evil inflicted when the child against the law, as well as restoring and re-socialize the child.

Juvenile Delinquency is an anti-social behavior can be disturbing public society, but it is recognized as a common phenomenon that must be accepted as a social fact. Children based on their physical, mental and social have a weak position compared with adults, so that children who committed needs to be special treatment. Therefore, the treatment of juvenile delinquents should be different with the treatment of adults. Child Protection in fact there are still many who have not accommodate the principles of international instruments. In the juvenile court still found violations of children's rights in the implementation of the handling of children in conflict with the law. Research it can be concluded that the formulation of policies for the protection of children in conflict with the law in the juvenile justice system in Indonesia is regulated in Law No. 3 Year l997 on Juvenile Court has not accommodated the principle of the best interest of the child in the juvenile justice system, so it is normative in the formulation did not reflect the level of the basic idea of the protection of children. Thus, the level of normative formulation does not reflect the basic idea of the child protection law. Formulation studies to the protection of children in conflict with the law in the juvenile justice system in accordance with Law No. 11 Year 2012 has been to accommodate the principle of the best interest of the child with the diversion. Yet undiscovered principles of availability of legal aid in the context of the principle of diversion and diversion control authority. Formulation studies to the protection of children in conflict with the law in the juvenile justice system in accordance with Law No. 11 Year 2012 has been to accommodate the principle of the best interest of the child, among others, by focusing on the handling of children in conflict with the law through diversion measures to promote restorative justice approach. Application policy to the protection of children in conflict with the law in the juvenile justice system involves substantial problems, structural and cultural. Paradigm of retributive justice system is still an idea in Act No. 3 of 1997. Keywords: Criminal Law Policy; child protection, juvenile justice system reform.
