A CRITICAL REVIEW OF CHILD COURT PRACTICE IN TURKEY
Journal Title: Journal of the Human and Social Science Researches - Year 2012, Vol 1, Issue 3
Abstract
Child courts in Turkey have been serving for the juvenile pushed to crime and victims of crime since 1987 onwards. Despite the fact that these courts work on “the best interest of the child”, it is mandatory that the humanist thought take more place in practice on how a better child court practice should be. The items in the judgment standards that take place in various international texts such as the UN Convention on Child Rights, Minimum Standard Rules for the Administration of Juvenile Justice System, and the Rules for the Juveniles who are Deprived of their Liberty, etc. have provided the nationally based practice with progress, but the rehabilitation process of the child pushed to crime or the child who is a victim of crime takes a back seat unfortunately. What is and should be the role of the child welfare professionals who work for the support and best interest of the child in the forensic field? This study will deal with the problems that the proffesionals within the scope of the “proffesional who is in charge of social work” experience in the process of professional intervention and discuss how an effective “child court practice” should be. For this reason the study will deal first with the historical dimension of the child courts in the world and Turkey, and then focus on the development of them in Turkey, challenges in practice, the phenomenon of child criminality, and its reasons, etc.
