Summary/Abstract: The minority status places the offender in an area of vulnerability, which is often within the reach of a combination of factors that influence his attitude towards social values. For this category of offenders, a special criminal liability system has been regulated, with specific sanctions, and the choice of their nature and duration must not be made arbitrarily, as any solution should be predictable and motivated by reference to the degree of social danger of the deeds and the dangerousness of the perpetrator. In order to understand the extent of these concepts it is necessary to perform an analysis of the general individualization criteria of sentencing as they are presented and interpreted by the legal practice. The current regulation is not dependent on the „malum non habet aetatem” principle, which is why it is useful to understand the arguments on the basis of which the court individualizes the anti criminal reaction, placing on one hand the malum element, and on the other the objective and subjective data regarding the deed perpetrator dichotomy.
