AGE BEING A FACTOR OF CRIMINALITY AND ITS IMPACT ON FELONIOUS RESPONSIBILITY IN PRACTICAL LEGISLATION

Main Article Content

DELLAL WARDA

Abstract

Age is one of the factors that criminology examines as an individual factor related to the person of the criminal and which directly affects his criminal behavior. The crime is not related to a specific age stage, but the establishment of criminal responsibility or not varies according to age, depending on the foundations of criminal responsibility adopted by positive legislation. The juvenile is not treated as an adult in terms of criminal liability, given his physical, mental and psychological composition, which necessitates a gradual assumption of criminal responsibility for the criminal behavior he commits.
