Summary: when 1978 Constitution came into force, it became necessary to modify the former “protective system” in which juvenile criminal justice was based. A complex legislative process concluded in the year 2000 when the Law of “Criminal Responsibility of Minors” was passed, law with contemplates a great number of measures, depriving and non depriving of liberty, directed to rehabilitation of young and under aged persons in conflict with the criminal system. In the studies over this group, we find that most of the analysis are oriented to one exclusive perspective (juridical, psychological, sociological, etc) but´s still missing a wider multidisciplinary research, implicated not only with the Juvenile Justice System operators, but also with people why study the issue from other areas and/or perspectives.
