dc.description.abstractThe Bill promoted by Argentina’s Minister of Justice and Minister of Security aims at reforming the juvenile penal system and would reduce the age of criminal responsibility from 16 to 14 years. This has resumed the debate on the pending repeal of the current system. Instead of adapting it in line with human rights norms, the Bill responds to a punitivist logic reinstating the criminalization of adolescence in a situation of vulnerability.
